I was doing some configuration on the Carputer last night (out of the car) trying to get the Garmin 15L I just installed working.... It was being seen as a Mouse, I guess, and REALLY freaking out the system..... Mouse movement and clicks all over the place.... programs opening and closing.... etc.... I renamed the sermouse.sys file as sermouse.BAK.sys as recommended in a post here....
The mouse freakage went away... then shortly after this (not sure exactly when) but definately after a reboot, the keyboard was dead. I tried a second keyboard, no success.....
The NUM / CAPS / SCROLL locks lights do not come on, there is no keyboard in the Device manager, under Keyboard in Control Panel, there is nothing listed in the Hardware tab....
I did notice when I plug in a keyboard with the system up, the lights (for the locks) blink once, but nothing more... no blinks during bootup....
I am hoping it is not hardware related (the connector or circuitry on the m/b).... Is there a keyboard drive (for a regular old corded PS2 keyboard) that can be installed.... Maybe I removed the keyboard driver after I changed the sermouse.sys file by bo-bo...... I don't think I did but who knows....
Any ideas
Oh, I also did a System Restore to before this sermouse.sys stuff, but that didn't help..
