HARDWARE
Since hardware is the area that gives most of us the heebie-jeebies, let’s kick off here.

Keyboard not working? Turn everything off, unplug the keyboard, now blow hard into the connector, give it a wipe with a cotton bud and try again.
If it’s a USB keyboard, try a different USB port on the PC. If that’s no good, try borrowing a friend’s keyboard and see if that works.
