Cannot Login to XP - Keyboard Keys Not Recognized

[Erik]

After renaming 12 /system32/drivers files with a .orig
extension, I am now not able to log in to XP since my
keyboard does not seem to be recognized. I need to undo
what I did by renaming the .orig driver files back to
their original names. I cannot login via the keyboard and
have tried safe mode. Any ideas would be very much
appreciated. Thanks

I'm not sure why you would have done this renaming, but I think you're
going to need to do a Repair Install at the very least. Here's a link
to instructions:

Good luck and let us know if you need more help,

could it be that, you're using a different language regional setting, and so
the keyboard keys may be different?
