Ps2 Keyboards Won't Work.
May 8, 2006
One of my machines (running xphome, sp2 and all updates) will not install the keyboard. This has only happened today. I have tried other ps2 keyboards with the same result. I keep getting 'code 39' error on boot up, that says it cannot install drivers for keyboard. It works okay on start up to let me in to CMOS, and I can F8 to get into safe mode. However, in safe mode keyboard still not working. I have tried uninstalling and letting windows reinstall on bootup, but just get 'code 39' again. Did a system restore which didn't work either.

Operating System System Model Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3 (build 2600) Dell Inc. Dimension 4700. I have a Microsoft Reclusa Keyboard that I bought December 26, 2008. Every time I press a g, the keyboard also adds a b. When I press the b it adds the g. This messes me up when I try to enter some passwords. Yesterday I unplugged it, took it outside and shook any dirt out, then I used compressed gas duster on it and let it dry well, but still doing it.

I have a problem with keyboards on WinXP (SP2). I have English, Slovene, and Sanskrit installed. Somehow, I don't remember exactly how, four far-east keyboards also installed themselves: Chinese, Taiwan, Japanese, Korean. I would like to remove them, but if I do that, after some time, they install themselves again.

Situation: Had MS Natural Keyboard Pro PS2 with the media keys working just fine. Problem... it's a white keyboard and all my stuff is now black or silver. Okay, get a new keyboard, MS Wireless Natural Keyboard. Uninstalled and reinstalled old/new software. ONly problem, the new keyboard can't control volume up/down. It can mute/unmute and all other special keys work.
where the link is that ties those keys in to the main volume control in registery. Here's something interesting: If I plug the old PS2 keyboard in, no drivers, XP recoginizes and all media keys work fine on it including volume. If I keep both keyboards installed simultaneously they both work fine and control everything EXCEPT the new one can't raise/lower the volume, just mute.

.I would like to hook up two keyboards, to work independently of each other.
Due to the fact that I like to be speed productive, I love quick keys, and hotkeys and any type of key you can think of.
Now, when I place a second keyboard on my computer, it acts like the first. This is not the output I wanted.

At random occasions, my mouse will get all jumpy on me. Another way to describe it would be laggy - the pointer is laggy. I can drag the pointer across the desktop and it'll get 'stuck' a few times. Sometimes it even gets stuck for 10-30 seconds. Sometimes although very, very rarely it gets stuck and won't move until I reboot. Logging out of Windows and changing users or something like that doesn't help. I have to shutdown or reboot.
And sometimes the computer will beep when the mouse is getting stuck. The beep isn't coming from my speakers, but from the motherboard (?). The mouse is clean, I'm sure of that. It has also been taken care of, so I don't understand why it would start failing on me. And the other bizarre thing is that.. sometimes the mouse will work okay for two straight days, but then it'll start to screw up, and stay a little jumpy even after a reboot, such as right now.

If you turn off the system windows xp used with the GA-K8NSC-939 motherboard by using start and then shut down, does the mouse and keyboards stay on after the system is Off?
I had this problem happen with an Asus motherboard. Checked all of the setting in the bios.

okay at first this wasn't too anoying but now it is a major problem at first it was just that when i went to windows update it would get stuck in the thing where it says that it is checking for the latest updates.to try and solve this issue i did these things:i ran windows update for 3 days straight and didn't do anything on my computer (it was stuck in the screen i mentioned before)i reinstalled windows, but for some reason the problem carried over a friend of mine told me about windows defender and that it was free, so i installed it and behold it uses windows to update and im stuck with the bare bones of the program.

I am using the IIS on Windows XP to test pages I develop. Is there a limitation that Includes are not processed? I know they work on the server but do not seem to work from the local IIS install.

I just got a laptop with 200 server installed on it and I would like to learn about it. I need some help with what I thought would be a simple setup. I want to set up 2 users for this laptop. myself and my daughter. I have it set with myself as the admin and her as a user. I want to be able to limit the amount of damage she does to the poor thing. My main question is how to set up certain programs to work and not work for her. I have one program music match that works in admin but not on user even though it seems to say it will work for users. From what I have seen from this operating system its not real easy to set it up. I have a book from the library but its a que and not good for me. Any advise on a good book would be great. I know it would be easier to use xp or win 2000 pro but thats not nearly challenging enough for me.

I have a Toshiba laptop satellite series A205-S5814.the time i bought it the USB ports were working but after a period of a year they are no longer working I updated the drivers but still now. I also changed the operating system that is from vista to XP but the problem persisted. It did not stop on that only, the DVD-ROM also failed to read DVDs.

I has 5 computers with windows 2000 pro. Their is no "server" only peer to peer
network. I want to be able to get 2 private ip address at my home to allow a data and an ip phone connection. Would a VPN through cable modems work well for this? Or my other option is to use a wireless bridge, my home is about 1.5 miles from the office but has several trees that may block the signal.

They are both plugged into USB plugs, I have some on the back and 2 on the front of the PC. Maybe using each one in a different location? Right now I have the Canon 6000D set up and also PRIMO PDF that uses the printer to save in PDF mode (this is selected in the print options box at the time). It SEEMS like the Lexmark should just show up there, as a choice. Not having it set as "default".

Ok so I have a OEM version of XP home from a old dell that is being replaced by my new build. Is it possible to use the reinstall disk to put xp on the new rig? I have heard that the OS will look for tags in the mobo bios and won't install if it can't find them.If it won't work would an upgrade version of xp work. They are cheaper but need verification that you own a copy of a MS operating system, could I use the OEM xp for verification.If none of this will work is there anyother way to get around buying a full version of xp home? I don't want to spend $200 on the OS if I can avoid it.

This is driving me batty. I can't leave my computer for someone else to use, coz the autorun isn't working. My hubby isn't terribly computer literate and so doesn't know how to find the run command, and it's just too hard to teach him. Therefore if I'm away for a while, he can't use the computer to look at anything or put a game on for my son.Can anyone tell me how to turn my autorun back on. I don't even know how it got turned off.
