Keyboard Drivers Fail To Initialize In Win2K

[olds]

I upgraded my case, video card, OS (from win 98, a fresh install) and added a zip drive yesterday. I was loading drivers and software and had just loaded the drivers for my scroll mouse. I restarted and got an error message telling me that the keyboard drivers didn't load. I went to use the mouse to close the box and no mouse. I hit enter and no joy. I restarted and got the same message. Reset cmos, power up and try to go in safe mode to delete the drivers. I can't get into safe mode because my keyboard dosen't work (can't click "OK" when I get the You are in safe mode box). I inserted the Win2K CD to reinstall windows and the cd didn't auto start, it just booted into windows. I am stumped and frustrated. :disgust: Any help? TIA

Update
I was able to get into windows with a USB mouse (couldn't find anyone with a USB keyboard). I uninstalled the keyboard and mouse drivers in safe mode. I reinstalled the drivers (twice) and I am still having the same problem. I tried to reinstall windows but couldn't type in the key. Time to format and try again. I went from RAID O to no RAID because one of my IBM GXP 75's took a dump. I think I'll pick up two Western Digital's and go back to RAID.
