Interesting. If it doesn't work in safe mode, which loads no drivers, then it's starting to sound like a true hardware issue. I assume you've tried a different keyboard, or a USB keyboard, that is if this is a PS2 keyboard, or vice versa, depending on the motherboard and what type of keyboard it supports.> > No. I tried: Safe Mode, Safe Mode command prompt, Safe mode with > networking support. > Nothing worked Was there a power outage or spike coinciding when you joined it, such as from a storm? Ace I tried usb and ps2 keyboards, and there was now storm or spike. I cant
guarantee that it worked before joining the domain, as it was set to auto-login.

Go to another machine, open regedit, connect to this machine's registry. If you remember the location in the reg, re-enable the keyboard. If not, I will look for the key for you.

I wouldn't do it, but you can use TweakUI to configure it, or mess with the reg:> > I didn't (or don't) think that you can auto-logon to a domain?

I was also thinking if there's a GPO on it, or if someone else was playing a trick with a GPO reg entry, or even an app running, such as an old kiosk app, that disables it. Ace This is an older machine, so could be ctrl-alt-del was disabled from
beforehand. The keyboard worked, because I used it to join the domain.

Ok, good point, so you were able to join it to the domain with the keyboard. > This is an older machine, so could be ctrl-alt-del was disabled from > beforehand. > The keyboard worked, because I used it to join the domain. Do you have any group policies applying to either this machine? Were you able to connect to it's registry from another machine? Take a look at this link on how to disable it. Check the reg for these settings. http://www.trap17.com/forums/Disable-Keyboard-t51727.html http://hak5.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=9899 Ace Charles,
How long did you wait to see if the k-board would be detected?? I have seen Dell and Compaq boxes loaded from a Ghost image not detect the k-board or rodent for close to 10 minutes. Is there hard drive activity on the box??

That leads me to another question to Charles, the original poster: Do any of the lights light up on the keyboard, such as for caps lock, numlock, scroll, etc? Ace Yes, the lights work.
When I press the space bar, it open up the help box.

Did you check the registry as suggested remotely from another machine to see if the keyboard is disabled or there is an autologon setting set? Ace
