Hi !
i have a macbook from 2008 around august and im annoyed i went to turn my mac on and every thing went like it suppose to but when it comes to the start up when i have to login and type my password in i cant
because the bloody trackpad and keyboard wont respond please reply before i throw my lovely mac out the window
help !
 
I had this happen a few weeks ago on my Macbook. I simply restarted it and everything worked fine.
 
Just because OS X can't use the keyboard doesn't mean the EFI can't. In fact, if neither one can use the keyboard, that's a pretty good sign that the keyboard itself is the problem.
yup, sounds like the problem. hopefully the computer is still under warranty
 
Go to a Genius Bar if you have one in your area and talk to them about your problem. They should take it in and fix it. If it's not fixed yet, talk to them and tell them to fix it again.
If after three tries they haven't fixed it, you're capable of requiring a replacement- An Aluminum MacBook.😛
