Now I can not enter my Password, and the page shows it to be "Locked". And now, having been away from the laptop to type this, it went into sleep mode, and when I woke it, the Password screen came up. I then did the full install from the Win Technical Preview DVD that I know is good. So in order to 'really' start from scratch, I did a clean install of Windows 7 from its DVD, and was able to type into text boxes without a problem. And sure enough the keyboard only 'beeped' at me whenever I tried to use it, nothing appeared in the text boxes. On it I found the customized mouse pointer I had done in my original installation, and feared that whatever had caused my typing not to function would carry over to the 'new' installation. In an attempt to start from scratch I did a complete restore, and all went well until I came to actually start using the desktop. The mouse on the other hand worked just fine, including clicking on and selecting items. However this time, once inside Windows I could no longer type in any text box: the cursor did not move, there was just a short, flat monotone sound for each key stroke, including the Shift, Ctrl, Alt, and arrow keys. Which I did, and again the installation routine was smooth and I was able to enter my email address and verification code. On the subsequent recovery something went wrong, and all I got was a message stating that I had to reinstall the OS. As part of my testing, I wanted to test out recovery options, one of the most important part of the OS to me. I was able to install the Tech Preview without a problem, including the ability to type info into text boxes.
