Hi MacMac,

I would hazard a guess that you are using bluetooth wireless k/b and mouse.
If this is correct, you have just installed Windows and it has not finished loading all its drivers for wireless. No bluetooth devices will work until the configuration is done and you have setup and installed all drivers.

The answer is actually quite simple: complete the installation using a USB Keyboard and/or mouse. I personally got away with only a USB mouse and no keyboard, but it depends on your driver requirements and if you need to do any typing.

Cheers,
Greg

Yeah I had to pull the USB keyboard & mouse out of mouth balls and plug it in but I still had some issues with getting them noticed and then getting them to be known after a restart. All is fine now so far.

Well the wireless keyboard was working all this time and now today it lost contact with Vista. I tried pairing it again but it gets upto paring with the password and it fails so it can see it but won't pair with it anymore for some reason.

The same thing happened when I went into OS X Leapord but it paired there ok.

What should I do ? besides removing Vista
