Try booting in safe mode and see if the keyboard is locked. Maybe the keyboard is bad.

Turn off the computer, then hit the power button to turn itback on and immediately start hitting the F8 key repeatedly until you see SAFEMODE. Take the Safe Mode option and let it boot up. Safe Mode will lookdifferent to you, the screen will be darker and the icons bigger, this isnormal.

Restart laptop, press F8 to enter the Windows Advanced Options Menu. There are many options, try going to the computer via:

1. Last Known Good Configuration (advanced) - enter. If it fails to enter windows, restart - F8 - select
2. Directory Services Restore Mode - enter. If it fails to enter windows, restart - F8 - select
3. Debugging mode - enter.

you did not stated where, is this on your computer? on the darddrive? on the operating system?

removing password from computer or harddrive is beyond scope of this forum. if password is on windows xp matter is relatively simple.

1. boot computer in safe mode (pressing f8 key during startup will give you choice)
2. log in as administrator
3. press "start"
4. select "control panel"
5. select "users"
6 . remove password
7. restart computer and use normally

if this do not work, find on the net any of free available password removal programs, create self-boot floppy or cd with program, follow instructions.
