I know the keyboard works since the BIOS does recognize
it and it does work when I go into the computer Setup. It
also works at the NT bootloader when I can select between
Windows NT and Windows NT VGA mode. It's after Windows
gets to the Ctrl-Alt-Del prompt that it's inoperative.
I guess I will try doing a repair and see if that helps.
