installation, but cant get them installed.


Since a backup should only read your C drive, it is unlikely that any
drivers got deleted. However, the electronics that connect you mouse
and keyboard may have suffered damage.

If the keyboard is not detected, doesn't XP go into some kind of wait
stat telling you to hook it up and press F1?
