Guest Cesar Guerra Posted October 13, 2008 Posted October 13, 2008 My win XP machine has suddenly started disabling my keyboard on Windows bootup. This applies to both USB and PS2 The keyboard functions properly until the windows screen appears with the Blue oscillating bar under the windows logo. I am out of good ideas. Does anyone have any new one or has anyone experienced the same problem?

The kb should be reinstalled with, hopefully, a working driver. -- Joe =o)

Try Last Known Good Configuration from the same menu as Safe Mode. If that doesn't work... 3. Try Safe Mode Command Prompt and run a System Restore to when things worked. From the command line: c:\Windows\System32\restore\rstrui.exe [enter] What changed between the time things worked and the time they didn't? Malke -- MS-MVP Elephant Boy Computers - Don't Panic!
