Okay this is bizarre,

On my MBP (OS leopard 10.5.2) under my boot camp partition (XP PRO SP3) I can’t use my on board keyboard in XP. There are several weird things about this when I am in XP. Under devices it doesn’t display a keyboard driver (only my external USB keyboard), if I run XP through fusion the keyboard works fine and the driver (standard 101/102-key or Microsoft natural ps/2 keyboard) is displayed.

Then there are the things that do work. The F1 thru eject button works, the backlit keys turn on in the dark, and the trackpad works!

These are the things I have tried. repairing windows drivers with the leopard CD but it doesn’t work. Looking under the drivers when I run fusion and find the location of the drivers, run boot camp, then look for those drivers in the Windows System files and I find the SAME drivers but they are dot displayed under device manager.

PLEASE HELP! 😕
