Lost...wireless keyboard/mouse question...

[PolarbearBigEd]

Ok, here is the deal. I installed a new northbridge heatsink on my friends mobo and whatnot and everything boots fine and dandy. I went to the bios screen to change some of settings back to normal and it changed fine. Now, after we get to the stupid windows logon screen, I can't type anything. It's a wireless keyboard/mouse combo. The only infamouse MX700 I think that everyone used to have. Anyway, they keyboard only work"ed" in the cmos, but not the windows logon. The mouse, no go. Question is, what the heck is going on? The logic doesn't make sense, the keyboard can work in CMOS but not in Windows? wtf? Now the keyboard won't work at all, no matter what keyboard we throw at it. Any thoughts? I'm lost. I've tried everything I can think of. Replacing the batteries, reconnecting, switching out keybaords, nothing. My only final resolve might be that the PS/2 port is dead, but that would just suck. Any thoughts?

-P

Weird one. Have you treid to see what resetting your bios does? (using the jumper of course)

*edit* if you've got the elite wireless combo, the keyboard has a usb to ps2 adapter, have you tried it w/both ports?
