Default Keyboard and Trackpad

So i turned on my macbook this morning, I am pretty sure it has the lastest version of lepeord on it, and my keyboard or my trackpad did not work.
So i started up in windows and everything worked fine. does anyone know a fix?

I did a little bit of research but i really didnt have any good answers except this one, from ,
1: turn off your MacBook
2: Insert the "disk 1" OS X disk
3: turn on your MacBook while holding Alt
4: keep holding alt untill you reach the boot menu.
5: Select the disk and pick you language
6: then continue with the process

Didnt know if anyone could confirm that this worked.

I also tried holding command and "S" while start up and then typing in
fsck -y but i was not able to type fsck -y because it did not recognize the keyboard.

Thanks,
Radis

I don't know much about macs but when my keyboard and mouse would stop working on my PC, it was usually related to the drivers. I would take your macbook into the apple store and have someone look at it.

That's odd. Do you have an external mouse or keyboard to try?
