I'm trying to reinstall Windows XP on a friends Sony VGN-FS620/W. The keyboard is not working, I can't even boot to BIOS because the keyboard isn't recognized. I have a clean formatted disk, no OS installed. I tried to install DOS 7.10 from the CD/DVD ROM drive which still works, but can't press any key to continue with the install. This keyboard issue was occurring before I wiped the Hard Drive. Is there anything I can/should try before I spend $40 or $50 on a new keyboard? I've tried plugging in a USB keyboard - no go. Any suggestions would be awesome.
