I have a new problem

you didn't say what operating system you are using. XP is on a bootable CD, so just insert that CD and reboot your computer. Then reinstall the os on top of the current os.

Next time, back up the registry before you start screwing around with it.

Im using winXP, but im not wanting to dump my system, just restore it. I also cant use the cd because i dont even have one!! I have home edition but this isnt the one im wanting to use. im wanting to keep Media Center Edition.

since you can't even use the keyboard I see no other option but to reinstall the os from CD unless you have a backup of the registry on another disk.

I spose im screwed then!

didnt you say you were using USB for BOTH mouse and keyboard? WEll i suggest plugging a normal mouse and kb into the PS/2 ports and see if that works

I Know I could almost bet PS/2 is tha way to go for my problem, BUTTT.. As soon as i thought about it, I ran over and grabed a spare ps/2 mouse i had and i was about to plug it in but, i just realized my dumb computer doesnt even have any ps/2 ports. I spose its because they are trying to standardize USB for alot of things, Such as mouses and keyboards.
