Hi...I just installed Windows Vista on my Macbook (OSX leopard) and Windows will not recognize my wireless keyboard or mouse.
Any solutions???

Are these Apple's keyboard and mouse or some other company's?

[mossanimal]

Yeah... These are Mac devices. I now have a USB mouse... Can I use this to get into Windows control panel settings and turn on Bluetooth or something? Can somebody point me to the correct settings to do this???

Did you run the Boot Camp install from OSX Leopard install disk? that installs all the drivers needed.

First off, yes, you can use ANY USB mouse and keyboard to set up Windows after installing it. But as soon as possible after finishing the install, you should insert your Leopard install disc and let it install the Windows drivers for all your Mac hardware. I mean like "ok it's installed, now I do the drivers." Immediately, promptly, ASAP, etc. It is that important. Windows' installer has drivers for a broad range of hardware, and during the install it'll work fairly well. But once the installer is done, Windows itself will try to use the "best" driver, and what it uses if it can't find such a file is often a poor second.

So stick that Leopard disc in the drive while you're running Vista and let it find the right drivers for your hardware (Apple's installer app is pretty bright and will install the right drivers and only those drivers). Then your Apple wireless stuff should work fine.
