Stupid !$!@#$ Windows

[mdlbear]

Stupid goddamn Windows! For some reason, Windows on the Younger Daughter's machine wasn't responding to the keyboard. Mouse worked fine, and the keyboard worked for the bootloader and Windows login, so it's not hardware. Anything I could think of to do to fix it would, of course, involve typing in a URL to find software. Nuke and pave. Takes roughly half an hour to load the install image from three CDs, and probably another two hours to install a minimally useful set of programs (Firefox, OOo, network config for the printers). Foo.

Yeah...dunno how the OS handles between USB keyboard vs PS/2...but was wondering if that seemingly subtle difference coulda helped.

But hey...all that matters is that it works now ^^
