    Hi,

    Are you using a USB or PS/2 (round type connector) keyboard? If you are using USB see if you can find an old PS/2 keyboard and try that. You have to have the keyboard connected before powering on.

    Then when given Safe Mode options try Last Known Good Configuration, first, before any other option as it is the most useful but only really works once.

    Did you have to switch keyboards or did your normal keyboard start working?

    Which OS are you running? Do you have an installation CD?

    What do you see on screen after you make your safe mode etc. choice? Any activity at all or immediately restarts?

    Try the option on the safe mode page for Disable Restart on Error. See if it gives you an error code or mentions a file on a blue screen.

    It should be on the same page with the other choices like Last Known Good and Safe Mode with Networking.

    If you aren't getting to that page then try F8 at startup to see if you can get those options.

    Re: help plz small difficult problem

    Try choosing just safemode-so that minimum drivers are loaded- not last good, and see if it boots o.k
    If it does it could be a driver issue, or, an update issue.
    If this started today/yesterday, and you can get into safemode,
    CLICK START
    CLICK ALL PROGRAMS
    CLICK ACCESSARIES
    CLICK SYSTEM RESTORE,AND CHOOSE A DATE THAT IS HIGHLIGHTED, AND CLICK RESTORE MY COMPUTER.
