is the system restore working in the safe mode? if yes, do a restore  alternatively, you can boot from the xp cd and do a repair by pressing ''R''. select the partition and type

chkdsk /p

hi seema...there a variety of things i would like you to try...

 

1.) Check if the Online eyboard provided by microsoft is working it or not.you can find it in start>programs>accessories>easeofAccess>onlineKeyboard  [for Vista] (for XP..dnt got o easeofAccess)

2.) now you may also try downloading the latest drivers for the keyboard and then du it coz sometimes conflicts can create independencies b/w system files and files get corrupted...that could be a posssible reason of your keyboard failure

3.) try installing OS from different resources...tryto do it from another backup copy or restore disk of your os

4.)or u may try a new optical drive...so that to make sure there is no read problem

5.)If the keyboard doesn't work in BIOS then it has nothing to do with any kind of software or virus.
Do the keyboard LEDs respond to caps lock and/or num lock?

6.)try using a different keyboard

7.)Check the Cables ...if they are tight

NOTE: Anytime something on your computer makes you nervous, you should immediately get a backup copy of the vital files you have, starting with most important first.

 

Try now and still if you face any problem do ask...i hope the steps above will help you troubleshoot for sure

As you said it worked fine for an hour. So after that did you connect to net? Did the prob. occured aftre u connected o net? Or did it happened after you run some progrms or apps?

What else have you intsalled apart from OS?

If you are comfortable with formatting and reinstalling, do it again , do a clean install. Do a Full format.

And dont install any other apps or progrms. Just install the drivers that came with your mobo, (graphics drivers etc.) Dont instll your AV also, Just OS and Mobo drivers.

and then start using PC  DOnt connect to net & watch what happens. So we have to locate whether its your HW fault or SW fault.
