I cant move my mouse or type?

Recently, I when I was logged on, my mouse stopped working. Thinking nothing of it (I have a wireless keyboard/mouse), I unplugged the receiver, and tried to re-connect the keyboard/mouse. However, I still couldn’t move the mouse/keyboard. So I tried a corded keyboard/mouse (using PS2) and it still wouldn’t work. I’ve tried rebooting, and it still wont work (I’m using a different computer right now). However, I know that the keyboard/mouse/hardware isn’t defective because I was able to boot onto Ubuntu (Linux) via a live CD, and everything worked just fine (keyboard/mouse). Regardless, I still can’t get into Vista…I get stuck at the log-on screen (I’ve got a password, and safe mode doesn’t work). My only method of input is a media center remote (plugs into USB … but that only ‘types’ numbers (which do, however, appear). I’ve got absolutely no idea what to do.

how to flash a laptop BIOS?

My compaq presario v2575us laptop is telling me that my BIOS is not ACPI compliant (on a BSOD), and restarts immediately after the message. Even if I try to boot into safe mode, or with an XP CD or a linux live CD, it doesn’t start up…it shows the same error with safe mode and the XP disk and just freezes with the linux live CD. So I thought that flashing the BIOS should reset the settings and probably get me back on track.This laptop is known for heating up pretty bad, and mine has been doing just that for the past 14 months and now that it has stopped working. I need from anybody. Let me know if there’s any addiitonal info you might need.
