    I ran Vista SP1 upgrade last night. It turns out that I can't access the Vista anymore. The Keyboard dead after Vista boot into Safe mode. It can't boot into normal mode. In Safe mode, the keyboard and track pad don't work at all. The plugin mouse work, and that's it.

    The Keyboard and touch pad work fine in Ubuntu.

    Anybody know what's wrong of it?

    id try doing a repair with your install disc, or system restore from the disc

    Good, go to the system restore and use the pre sp1 restore point. It should have made that automatically for you and it will roll you back. I used the sp1 system restore a few times and it worked perfectly before I figured out what was messing up my sp1 install. The add/remove for sp1 did not work as good as the system restore for me. You should not have to wipe your HD clean with the restore disc.. not yet anyway.
