Same question dose it work for Windows XP Professional as regular keyboard and mouse?thanks!

Unless absolutely necessary upgrading can be fraught with OS incompatibility issues as you have just found out. Either live with it, get another new keyboard, get a patch, or go back to prior OS

Which model of laptop ?

Nearly every device in your computer system can be turned off and on by accessing the Windows Device Manager with a few clicks of the mouse. It gives you plenty of flexibility and allows you to customize your computer on a whim. The Device Manager will allow you to enable your factory keyboard and mouse and disable your current ones, effectively resetting them to the default settings

Make sure that your default mouse and keyboard are plugged into your computer. Click on the Windows "Start" button in the lower right corner of your desktop. Type "Device Manager" in the "Start Search" box. Click "Device Manager" under "Programs." Click "Continue" if the Windows permission window pops up. Click the "+" next to "Mice and other pointing devices." Right-click the default mouse and click "Enable." Switch to your default mouse then right-click your other mouse and click "Disable." Click "Yes" in the warning popup window. Unplug the other mouse. Press the "+" next to "Keyboards." Right-click your default keyboard and click "Properties." Click the "Driver" tab then click "Enable." Click "OK." Right-click your other keyboard and select "Properties." Click the driver tab then click "Disable." Click "Yes" in the permission window then click "OK." Your computer is reset to the default keyboard and mouse.

Yes, it is possible, just follow my instructions and get your solution.

Click on Start and open All programs/ Programs and then click on Accessories and now click on Accessibility and now click on On Screen Keyboard.

Now you can use print screen (prc) just click on it through you mouse and it will work 100% guaranteed.

Rate me Please.


Thanks

You may want to try your last good configuration... Reboot your computer and hit F8 during the startup to get to that option.
If that doesn't work... try unpluging your mouse and keyboard from your tower and restarting the computer. Once it restarts then plug your mouse and keyboard back in to see if XP finds them.

Hi there.
While you are in the operating system, unplug both the USB devices, then plug them back in, let windows recognize the new hardware and install it for you, this can take a couple of minutes, once it says hardware is installed and ready to use reboot the PC and see if you can use the keyboard and mouse while in the OS.
please post back with any more problems

Good luck and thanks for using Fixya!!!
