Mr Docking, I nominate you sleuth of the month for finding the Win95 keyboard lockup at login problem. By changing the language settings in the keyboard properties control panel from "English (Australian)" to "English (United States)", I have eliminated the lockup problem from my PC. Interestingly, I have left the regional settings control panel at "English (Australian)", and this doesn't seem to worry anything. The only problem is that now I type with an American accent. Regards, TFBW
