Keyboard not working in initial windows setup
« on: April 02, 2010, 11:33:46 PM »
Hey everyone,

Well I'm trying to reinstall windows on a ubuntu machine with my windows xp disc. I boot to disc and get to the menu where you push enter to go on and I hit enter. Nothing. I don't know what the problem could be. Help? Thanks in advance!

Try a different keyboard. If you are using a usb keyboard, try a PS/2.
