Hi all

My Advent 7082 Keyboard & Mouse stop working after 2 mins. I first thought my laptop was freezing up but I done some investigating last night and found that the screen is not actually freezing what is happening is that the Keyboard and mouse stop working within 2 mins of boot up. I have managed to take all my files of the hard drive and started to do a recovery (F10) and when this was about 25% the way through the key board and mouse stopped working again even though I could see the recovery still working as this went to 100% completed.

If anyone has any ideas what the problem may be and better still haw to recover from this then I would appreciate the help. I am starting to lean towards drivers although I am just guessing.

Thanks
Arty
