Wireless Interface

My PC3 with Win7 is mounted in my "radio car" for emergency comms. Have been using the IOGEAR GKM681R wireless keyboard with this setup for a couple of months. Recently, the alphanumeric keys stopped working...in other words, I can't type. The trackball, scroll, and other control keys work. At IOGEAR's suggestion, I installed the keyboard on another computer and all worked successfully, so they're out of the picture.
What on earth might have changed in the OS?, or whatever, that part of the keyboard would stop working?? I'm bumfuzzled on this one and looking for suggestions as to where to look.
Thanks for any ideas.

As a follow up...I rebooted and hit F2 to go to the bios. That key worked and all the keys worked as I navigated around the settings. However, as soon as I exited the bios and Win7 launched the alphanumeric keys stopped working. Strange!
