Can’t figure this one out. The keyboard simply stopped working one day in my Vista 64 “archive/experiment” machine. Not the keyboard or CMOS. I also have XP and Windows 7 64 on separate disks on this machine, and they all work fine with any variation of keyboards/drivers.
Keyboard works until the VISTA 64 logon screen comes up. Log in using the on-screen KB, drivers for the keyboard are “Error 39” in device driver. Same error condition in Safe Mode; tried installing fresh drivers, NIL. Tried installing USB keyboard, NIL. All variations work with both XP and Windows 7 64. Last changes prior to failure were series of Windows and Office updates. Have unistalled them (except for SP for Office), still same problem.
This is the first problem I’ve encountered that has me stymied. Short of doing a reinstall of VISTA 64, haven’t found a way around this. I’ve looked but can’t find any conflicts in either drivers nor registry entries. Has to be some unrelated SW that stops this driver. Pretty clean system, Office 2007 w/SP’s, Nero Ultra 8 (9 is awful), Roxio 2009
Suggestions?
