    I have the same problem... except no kittens. I was using it just fine the other day, now the keyboard is locked.



    The mouse works just fine so I know its not the wireless receiver. Tried changing batteries, resetting the channel, reinstalling the software, etc.

For the laser 6000 v2

hit the reset button on the wireless receiver (oval button)
THEN
hit the small white reset button on back of wireless keyboard (it's called Connect Channel)

presto!

Just a guess here but it more likely they were playing with the nice wires (kittens seem to love wires, strings etc.) coming out of the back of your computer and unplugged the wireless receiver from the keyboard port.

Goo0dness, Had this myself just last week. Fortunately I had the old keyboard and mouse and plugged it in to get access.

How do I increase the range on my wireless microsoft 6000 keyboard and microsoft wireless laser mouse 6000 v2.0.

I have a Microsoft Wireless Notebook Laser Mouse 6000 that also has a very short range. The only solution I've found so far is to plug the receiver into a USB extention cord and run the cord toward the mouse.

Microsoft Wireless Laser keyboard 6000 v2.0

Try going to Control Panel, then click on keyboard and Keyboard Properties will come up. Then click on Key Settings and then click on Restore Defaults. Hopefully that will do it. Had a similar problem with an MS 4000 KB.
