UBCD did not recognize my keyboard?!

Hi,
I booted fine from my UBCD this morning but the main session seemed to ignore anything I typed on the keyboard. I have a relatively new Hewlett Packard Pavillion dv9000 with dual AMD 64 bit processors. Since too much of the Vista Ultimate system that shipped with the unit would not work, I've reverted back to Windows XP Pro. I can't see why that would matter since the UBCD should be loading its own drivers. I'm not aware of any oddities that would be incorporated in the hardware keyboard, but I could not get ANY keys to work. Once Windows booted, the keyboard worked perfectly. I tried booting the CD twice. Neither time was the keyboard recognized.
Sorry to report this but I figured you'd be interested.
Thanks,
Doug Ray
