Macbook pro keyboard not working

[Cool Buddy]

And why is the Wireless kb not working?

As I explained in my first post, for some weird reason, all the keys that are not working on the Macbook itself, do not work on the external keyboard either. The exact same keys.

That's what makes me think that the issue is a software one, not a hardware one. Hence I want to format the macbook.

one more option is downloading a OSX image
remove the hard disk from the mac and put a different laptop one(formatted in Fat32)
then install OSX again and see if the issue persists

the advantage is you wont lose stuff from your original hard drive in case something goes wrong
