I still use an external keyboard, but after following the procedure below the keyboard stopped acting crazy.
"Right click on the My Computer desktop icon, then go to properties. Locate and click on the Hardware tab then click on Device Manager. In device manager you can disable the internal keyboard and have only your external keyboard enabled."
I appreciate the response.
I have just been trying to disable the internal keyboard with no success.
IT WON'T DISABLE.
In Device mgr, there is a right click disable option on some of the hardware, but not for the PS2 keyboard.
There is no separate entry for the Internal keyboard, and I have seen some suggestion on the web, that the Internal keyboard is connected to the PS2 plug(socket).
I have tried uninstalling the driver, and it just get's reconnected, when Windows boots. (Plug & Play).
I tried setting Plug & play to Manual, and it still 'finds the new hardware', and installs drivers.
If I try disabling Plug & play, it is not healthy. EG Device Mgr can't display anything.
I had a look in the BIOS, to see if it allowed disabling of the PS2 keyboard. It didn't.
I realize that that would have been quite dangerous, but I was getting desperate.
How did you disable it ?
Was it available as a Right Click option ?
Thanks Rob
