    I WEnt to turn on the pc today, it booted up fine. Then I went to type my password and nothing happened, I tried to move the mouse and nothing happened. I plugged in a keyboard and mouse and they worked, but I have no sound, and no keyboard and mouse for when I travel!
    What can I do?

    Thats crazy. I just experienced the same problem today. I thought it was something i did. Computer was working fine last night, now no sound and the keyboard and track pad don't work.

    I tried reinstalling the driver for the trackpad but that didn't work. I couldn't find anything for the keyboard. Any help would be appreciated.

    were you connected to the net? i.e. were you online even inactively. It could be a Malware

    I mean certain files in the OS related to i/o devices could have been affected.
