Hi

If you boot your PC without the keyboard or mouse connected - is there a =
way of firing up the keyboard and mouse drivers latter once telnet'ed =
into the box?

Or, do I have to hit the restart button.  The keyboard does function - =
num lock lights up and stuff - just no input on the screen - so if the =
driver could be loaded then I think it would work!

Gordon
