Hello :)

I appreciate any help. This laptop is for my fastlane work so it sucks if I'll have to send it away :(

Problem:
  • Laptop Keyboard & Mouse Not Working At All
  • I cannot even enter Safe Mode or the BIOS (since the keys do not register)
Happened today after no significant changes except:
  • Installed pro paid version of Avast & restarted the computer
  • Have been travelling overseas lately and some of the screws had shaken loose - I tightened about 3 screws - still no fix
Other Notes:
  • The computer boots to the Windows Login
  • My external USB Mouse DOES work
  • My external USB Keyboard DOES NOT work
  • The Laptop Keyboard & Mouse DO NOT work
Tried Solutions:
  • Several Restarts and Shut downs
  • Removed Battery & AC Adapter (vice versa)
  • Opened the back up to have a visual inspection (didn't see much)
  • Un-mounted the Keyboard and checked the ribbon connections - were all good
Thanks so much to anyone for any further suggestions
Have a great day/evening :)
