For a little background, my superdrive is broken.
I managed to install windows XP on my machine with winclone.

I then booted up and got in fine. I proceeded to install the bootcamp drivers and rebooted.

Once I got to the login screen, my mouse works but my keyboard doesn't. Therefore I can't type the password.

I decided to try going into MY windows with my ROOMMATES computer via target disk mode.

So I put my computer into TDM and choose what seems to be MY windows from her drive choice screen. (The orange removable looking one).

The purpose for doing this was I was going to set it so it logs in automatically so I don't have to type the password and was going to solve the issue from there. But I noticed that it was HER windows XP and not MINE.

So I reboot and choose the other one (the hard drive looking one).

Same thing.. It's her windows XP.

I have no idea why both "Windows" are giving me HER Windows XP.

My keyboard and trackpad don't work. My mouse does. I don't have access to a USB keyboard. It might work because the USB mouse works.

Anybody know why this would be?

Thanks
