I'm trying to help out a friend of mine who has a Macbook Pro running Leopard 10.5 and bootcamp 2.1. Recently he had a problem when running Windows XP that was making the processor max out for no apparent reason. I read on-line that this could be because of a Windows XP update that wasn't compatible with bootcamp and to upgrade the bootcamp. I upgraded it from 2.1 to 2.1 and the issue went away. However the keyboard no longer works. I've seen a lot of posts on-line but it seems some people are just not able to get it to work so I'm hoping someone here will know. The most common answer was to reinstall or re-run the drivers from the original boot disk. I've tried that and it still does not work. Another issue I saw was that bootcamp sometimes has issues with USB devices plugged in while reinstalling the drivers and to unplug them and try again...I've done that too. I'm seeing the Apple keyboard in device manager and it says it is working...however I also see a HID Compliant Keyboard that will not start due to a corrupt or missing driver. When I go to update that driver from Windows it always tells me that I have the correct driver installed. I have a feeling that this is where the issue is. I would try and reinstall Windows XP but the keyboard doesn't work so I can't enter the product key. I hope someone know something else to try that I have not.
Thanks
