bsod help please
Noticed a couple of days ago that my keyboard had stopped working i have the logitech wireless keyboard and mouse.

I now get the bsod saying IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL at the top of the screen and an error number underneath which i will edit later and add it but i can't even get into safe mode as my keyboard wont respond and ive tried my daughters usb keyboard and that wont respond either.

I have thought that maybe its my keyboard thats causing this but cant even get into safe mode to remove it can any one advise as to what to do next.

    Already spotted that one mate but i'm afraid it still doesnt help me as my keyboard wont respond so cant access any part of the BIOS etc to remove or check anything as i said i think its something to do with my keyboard & mouse as it just stopped responding all of a sudden.

    Silly question really - but have you checked the batteries ?

    When you tried the USB keyboard, did you remove the Logitec wireless receiver ?

    I checked all that did a full reset the lot so eventually after plugging in old keyboard i booted to safe mode ran a complete reg spyware scan etc it then booted into windows fine and i then installed new wireless keyboard and mouse as after searching my computer i couldnt find the software or drivers for my logitech anywhere and i needed a new one anyway as my old one was white so was filthy.;)

    Thanks for the help anyway.
