    Keyboard problem

    I have a 2k machine with a weird keyboard problem. When the machine boots to the logon box, I can type and logon fine. When windows comes up, the only keys that work on my keyboard are the non-character keys! (Alt, ****ft, the windows key, etc.). Any ideas how to fix this? It is not a hardware problem, I have determined that for sure. Has to be a service not starting in Windows or a service that is starting that blocks the input (or something like that!)

    Thanks!

    Does it happen in safe mode? id check for spyware first (maybe a malicious keylogger that hosed your keyboard driver) after that maybe reloading the keyboard driver...
    No job is so simple that it cannot be done wrong
