Sony Viao external keyboard & mouse problems

[Guest]

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.hardware (More info?)

Dear all,

I was using an extermal keyboard & mouse for quite a while on my Sony Viao
PCG-GRT390ZP laptop (Win XP Pro). Suddenly for no apperant reason both
stopped working. If I plug them into the USB-port nothing happens (normally a
sound indicated its presence). The mouse is a MS Trackball Explorer 1.0 and
the keyboard a Compac Internet Keyboard.

Also it looks like my trackpad control panel in the Sony Notebook Setup has
disappeared which means I can't change the trackpad settings anymore.

Any ideas?

Thanx in advance for your help!

Erwin
