My Auntie's PC is borked again, and this time I don't know what to do with it.
She's getting 0x00000024 error and Windows XP is Blue screening. There is also a "Keyboard Failure" notice when the PC POSTS, so there's no keyboard until Windows is loaded, she tells me it's been there ever since she got the PC from her late ex-husband. So with no keyboard I can't try and boot Windows in safe mode, I can't install Windows because it seems the CDROM isn't set as second boot and because no keyboard I can't get into BIOS and make it so.
I've hit a brick wall, but I have just thought of that the keyboard is USB, would a PS2 give me keyboard control?
