keyboard and mouse not working in AutoCAD drawing environment

I came in this morning and my keyboard in not working in AutoCAD.  It works for every other program but, AutoCAD.  Very strange.  I can't click in the drawing environment either.  I can click on a command but as soon as I click in the drawing environment there's nothing.  Can't type on the command line.  Need help fast.  Thanks

Restart Windows, and in the meantime ask your IT what updates or changes got installed on your PC. These can be removed with a Windows System Restore.

Tried that. It's a no go.  I have never seen anything like this in 12yrs working with AutoCAD.  If you click on a command button it runs the command but you can't do anything on the canvas.  I have tried uninstalling/reinstalling, different user profiles and getting the same thing.  You can click on the settings buttons on the bottom of the screen, ie snap settings but no window pops up.  Can't type anything in the command line.  WEIRD!!!

You'll probably need to get more specific for remote assistance: mouse, driver, button settings etc.

can you turn on dynamic input?  if so, type SNAP and see what the value is.

I've been fighting this same issue this afternoon and am SO glad I found this post. Unplugged my 3D mouse and everything is working again. What the Heck?

yes.  I don't remember specific steps that I took to get everything working again.  It all works now though.
