    I have lost the use of of the keyboard but not the mouse all on my sony vaio vgn-t370p laptop. I can still use my mouse and have checked for viruses. I think I accidentaly hit a combination of keys but cannot figure out how to reverse. Has this happened to anyone else? Actually it happened while I was typing. I rebooted and no chg rebooted again and gained some back, rebooted again and now none of the keyboard works?

    I think you may be using your "Microsoft keyboard" (the on screen version) right now - or a second computer.

    Try looking in device manager if your keayboard is listed and working.

    Else... all I can say... try Google, wait for more answers.
