I've managed to get to the setup screen of Windows 7 using my Mac minis wireless keyboard and mouse, but my mouse and keyboard don't seem to work. What do I do? The wireless keyboard and mouse worked fine during the installation of Windows 7, but I can get passed the setup screen without enter my name and computer name.
Got a tip for us?

the bluetooth devices need to pair up in order for them to work. So your best bet is to borrow some wired devices.
Wow, that sucks! I don't have anyone to borrow a keyboard and mouse from, and I don't want to have to buy another keyboard and mouse. I have a MacBook, is there a way to utilise it's keyboard?
Nope. You can't get all the way through a Windows install with a Bluetooth keyboard. That's just how it is.
A spare wired keyboard/mouse is a good thing to have though, especially if your batteries go dead.
