Hi guys,

i have seen dozens of posts about this on various forums however i believe that i have an answer that may not be listed.

If your keyboard is working in bios but not during or after windows login here's what i did to fix it...

Forget about all the rubbish about USB failures, uninstalling the keyboard driver and the like...the solution is far simpler.

Your "Microsoft Wireless Tranceiver" driver is the problem, re-install it and your problem should be solved.

in order to do this there are a couple of things you will need to do

1. to sign in to windows you need to enable the "onscreen keyboard" (look to bottom left of win7 login screen and click on the "ease of access button" )

2. Once in windows, use your mouse to go to Control panel>Ease of Access>Ease of Acess Center>Select "Start On-Screen Keyboard"

3. Go back to either
-Start menu>Devices and Printers or,
-Control panel>Hardware and Sound>Devices and Printers>

Look to see if the Microsoft Wireless Transceiver is installed. If it is, uninstall and re-install it...if not...you need to install it!

This should fix the problem (i did not have to restart but you may have to)

Hope someone find this useful...i spent hours trying to find a solution that in the end...was a very basic and simple fix!

Kind regards
adam
