    I performed a fix on the flicker issue and when I reinstalled my keyboard only the num keys work....all the others are "locked out." That includes the Fn key which I would use to unlock the num lock.....help!

    This means I can't get past the login screen in XP.

    OK so I bought used keyboard and stuck it in and viola....fixed. I am guessing I tweaked the ribbon cable when I took it out or reinstalled it.

    Thanks.
