Thanks Ardell, that worked.
I did try the laptop keyboard afterwards and it was able to type all
letters/numbers/special characters as well as doing an ALT-Print screen.
The real issue that I have is that my Verizon air card is not being found.
The VZ Access Manager is saying "Device not Inserted." The air card is
inserted. Re-seating does not help. I do not have a back up to restore
to. I can't find the System Information/Tools/registry checker that I
have on my Win Me machine on this Win 2K laptop either.
