Yesterday, after having loaded a new disk, my son lost the control of his Atari 512 STe . We cannot input anything from the keyboard or the mouse. Disk drive is functioning normally. This is a brand new computer serial number A10AA 3043174. We reset the ST and the problem remains. We can do nothing. This looks like a virus problem. I am resident in U.K.. Do you know who I can be in touch with in order to fix this problem? Thanks & Regards Yves

Thanks to R.LUNNON@qut.edu.au He help me to fix the problem. In fact, it was a faulty joystick in port 1. The fire switch was blocked ON. Consequently, this disables the keyboard and the mouse. Recommendation: If your keyboard and/or your mouse doesn't have any action, disconnect any device in port 0 or port 1 and try a program using the keyboard. Thanks one more time Yves
