re: Stuck Key 40 Thursday, October 29, 2009 at 11:27 pm Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by lapicide (1 messages posted) It seems nothing to do with the keyboard. It is the result of an unclean shutdown. If you can access the panel Add Remove hardware then click upon it and then follow what it says. But if the OS does not load you can't do it and would need a bootable medium. I have been trying to see whether it can be done without a boot disc but so far no go. You can also download Knoppix and start your computer with it and see if you can find the needed panel.
