Re: Can't use mouse or keyboard

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

If I boot in safe mode, the keyboard and mouse still don't work. So I can't
logon to see the hardware devices.

By failing partition, I mean that the keyboard and mouse don't work, not
that there is anything wrong with the drive or anything else
that I know of.

If you boot in safe mode the camera driver wont be loading.
Any exclamtion marks in Hardware Devices?

You have a 'failing partition'? what is meant by failing?
If its a hd problem then using the second partition is not going to help

I have a problem where I can't use my mouse and keyboard from one of 2
Win2k
partitions on my machine. They work fine from the other partition. I
think
a camera driver install caused the problem. Is there any way to figure
out
exactly what went wrong and how to fix it without reinstalling Win2k?
Booting to Safe Mode doesn't work. I don't have a good registry backup.
However, I can load the hives from the failing partition's registry
using
Regedt32 - but I don't know what to look for or fix.

Thanks in advance for any good advice,
Mark
