Via?), tear apart the .inf file(s) for where things are supposed to go, and inject the files all while hoping for the best. Oh, and whatever you do, make a backup because you'll either be successful or prevent the Window$ install from ever booting again. Sounds like your biggest obstacle is the keyboard, usually they auto-detect pretty well. Always give the OS ~10 minutes of runtime before declaring the keyboard as unavailable. I've seen even on machines of identical hardware where they USB peripherals won't light up right away. You might have better luck with Windows PE, as you may be able to do a true install of the driver without all the .inf hackery. Just a guess though. In reality, you may be screwed, but with enough patience and hacking it should be possible. Oh, did I mention MAKE A BACKUP before you begin? Brian
