Hi,

My Ipac died  >:( ... no keyboard recognised ... if I connect the keyboard directly to PC it works ...

Any thoughts ? Should I buy a new one (this one worked  very few times) ? Any tests that I can do ? Should the circuit replacement do ?

Thanks,

Did you change any of the wiring?

There is a utility you can run to see what is happening.

I've occasionally had problems with my KeyWiz where Windoze would try to install a driver for it and it didn't work.

Shot in the dark, but try to boot into safe mode, go to Windoze device manager and uninstall all the keyboards and then let Windoze re-detect the keyboard (make sure you have the main Windoze install disc first . . .)

I had some problems with breaking the solder joints on the keyboard connectors on my ipac. To see if this is the case, try to gently wiggle the connectors to see if they move around.

On mine, I could even get it working if I positioned the cables just rights. Once I realized the problem, I resoldered the connection.

The broken connection was to the tab on the case of the connector and I've had no trouble since.
