Portege M200 - Keyboard is not working and I can't boot from CD/DVD

Hi
I recently tried installing VM Player on my Toshiba M200. When I rebooted my machine I found my network connections did not work. I tried to uninstall the VM Player but it failed half way. As the program had created a number of virtual network connections which I could not delete I went into the registry and delete 20 or so entries I thought where related.
I rebooted and found my HID Keyboard and Wireless devices not functioning. So I began using the softward ketyboard to try and fix the problem. I was able to reboot and login using the software keyboard until I did a restore to last normal boot setting. At which point, instead of getting my login window I get a message box asking me to press Ctrl-Alt-Del. When I do so using the software keyboard I get another window saying because of security I should press the Windows Security Key instead of the Ctrl-Alt-Del. When I press the Windows Security Key Button on the bottom right side of the screen nothing happens.
What can I do. I have also tried attaching a USB CD drive (Philips) but cannot get the notebook to boot from it. I get an error message (so I have got it looking for CD boot drives) saying the notebook cannot find the drive. The CD lights up during bootup but only for a sec.
I am desperate so please let me know what options I have or what I can do about this. The physical keyboard works during the bootup until the Windows first booting screen appears. No Caps lock or such working by the time I get to the login screen.
Thanks in advance for any advise you can provide.

Hi
A long story about your issue... I think the reason of this is why you have deleted some registry keys. If you delete something in the Windows registry you should really know what you do. You can damage the complete Windows system!
So I think this is the reason why the keyboard doesnt anymore.
In the user manual I have founded that the CD-ROM booting option is only available with optional optical disk drive.
So for me it sounds like that your USB CD drive is not compatible to the notebook

    1. I tried connecting it to itunes for a system reset and it didnt work.
    2. The phone wont even turn on!!!

    If the phone wont turn on it sounds like it needs to be charged.  Plug it into a charger and wait about 15 minutes and try turning it on while still charging. Have you tried holding in your home button with the on/off button held in?  Hold them both together until the apple logo comes up and then release them.  The screen will blink off an on while it is resetting. I still think this is a battery issue. Good luck~

    Internal microphone on Compaq NX6310  does not work and I can't locate it on my list of devices. What is the problem and how can I correct it? Thanks, Brian

    I seriously doubt that Apple will accept your iPad for service/exchange since it sounds like it's a real basket case.  If they
    Do accept it, the cost would be 99USD, but if it is a 64Gb model it will cost 199USD.  The best thing for you to do is to take it into the nearest Apple store to see if they will accept it for repair/exchange.  I can tell you that they definitely will not give you an iPhone in exchange.

    Follow directions for a battery you can remove, or a battery you should not remove yourself (which ever applies to you)
    Try a NVRAM/PRAM reset:

  • Keyboard is not working and laptop will not start up

    I have an HP 2000 Notebook PC which dropped and the inner screen cracked.  I had a family friend repair and was told the keyboard is no longer working and when you turn on it the black screen goes from "Diagnosing you PC" to "Preparing Automatic Repair"  CAN SOMEONE PLEASE ASSIST!!!!!!  I do not want to pay geek squad if I can fix on my own

    If you already had a family friend try and he was not completely successful, then you need to have someone do it who really knows how. It is your choice of who that will be.
    You can download the diagnostic softpaq and install it to a usb flashdrive. Once it is on the flashdrive you can boot to it and then test the keyboard. That way you will know for sure if the keyboard is not working. Perhaps  the keyboard ribbon cable was damaged during the attempted repair. Ribbon cables are quite delicate. 
    We are here to help, but suggesting repair services is not part of what we do..

  • Wireless Keyboard is not working and I cannot boot to MAC using Boot Camp

    Hi,
    I cannot get my wireless keyboard to connect to the Mac anymore. I have a 17" iMac that is running Boot Camp. since the Mac keyboard is not working I am using a PC USB keyboard (which does not have an "option" key) without the Option key I cannot enter Mac mode, so I only get the default boot to XP... HELP!!! Is there any other way to get into Mac mode without using the option key on the keyboard? Or is there another key on the PC keyboard that maps to Option?
    Thanks

    I wrote up my travails getting the wireless keyboard working, maybe it will help: http://industriousone.com/apple-wireless-keyboard-vs-windows-xp. Otherwise, you can boot into OSX by clicking on the Boot Camp icon in the system tray (looks like a gray diamond) and choose "Reboot in OS X mode" (or something like that, working from memory). In OS X, you can reboot into Boot Camp by going to System Preferences > Startup Disk and choosing Windows. Hope that helps!

  • Bootcamp is not working and my mac mini boots in to windows 7

    . my mac mini does not have a optical drive . is there a way to get into disk utility ? Also my keyboard does not work at the startup.How to recover

    I think this helps explain how to fix this HDMI Audio issue running Windows via Bootcamp. (I'm running Win 8)
    1. Go to Programs on the Control Panel
    2. Uninstall Intel HD Graphics Driver
    3. Restart computer
    4. Go to Intel's Driver Support website and download the driver.http://downloadcenter.intel.com/
    (I'd reccomend just selecting the auto scan and it will show you what drivers you can install)
    5. Install the Intel HD Graphics Driver
    6. Restart computer
    7. Go to Hardware and Sound on the Control Panel
    8. Click on Sound and the Intel Display Audio should display now and set it as default
    Hope this helps with anyone experiencing this same issue.

  • Help! buttons not working, scroll is not working, and I can't reset my iPod

    I hope someone can help me.
    The play/pause button is not working and on the odd occasion it does - it actually scrolls through the songs backwards.
    The backward/forward buttons don't work either.. and when they do.. it's usually on go to backwards.
    The Menu button works - fat lot that's helping me.
    I can't reset my iPod either and I've tried the 5 steps in reset.
    Sometimes I can scroll forwards if I press the select and forward button together. Click Wheel is also not working 99% of the time.. the odd time it did work.. it was really choppy.
    Needless to say, I can't turn off my iPod since 99% of the time, it does not recognize the play/pause button.
    Please help!!!
