Hi all!
I seem to have some problem, outside of DOSBox I'm unable to use my keyboard, mousepad or indeed access many programs. Everything works fine in DOSBox. A friend installed it for me so I was wondering where he'd gone wrong and how can I sort things out? Especially bearing in mind my rudimentary skills

(I'm using XP)

Thanks in advance for any help/advice!

i'm confused. you're saying you can't use the kb/mouse in windows but everything is ok inside dosbox? how do you start dosbox in the first place?

I can plug in a mouse, I just can't use the built-in mousepad.
(Sorry for being a bit vague, the problem is confusing enough as it is)
