Problems??

Hi all,

I installed vista beta 2 32 bit version and selecteed to upgrade so kept my
wireless router plugged in for updates etc... everything installed ok and it
restarted and came up to the start page with my name in a kinda flower box?!
but my mouse and keyboard would not work?? I could not get my mouse to move
to click on my name or anything?? I have the logitech wireless keyboard &
mouse but never use the software for them on my PC and they generally
connect.

Should I install the software and then do the upgrade again and then maybe
vista 2 will recognize my keyboard & mouse?? Anyone else have this problem?
everything installs fine but they cannot access vista afterwards?

As soon as I re installed media centre the keyboard and mouse worked just
fine, any help would be greatly appreciated. Eitherreply here to to my email
kimberwhitehead@yahoo.co.uk

Many thanks

USB? Try unplugging and then plugging in again. Sounds corny but has worked
for many in a similar situation.

Re: Problems??

I have the same problem with some of my USB devices. Try unplgging the
device(s) and plugging back in. If that doesn't work try a reboot. This
usually works for me.
