HP PS/2 Keyboard

jon slagill — Thu, 10 Aug 2006 03:59:56 GMT

Just purchased this new keyboard and had a hard time figuring out how to get it hooked up to computer. No book or anything came with this thing. I downloaded the driver off the HP site but when I go to START/CONTROLPANEL/Printers&OthrHardware/Keyboard, there is no dropdown button configuration to configure the keyboard buttons. What am I to do? I have XP. Do I have the correct driver?

Have a look at this page:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?lc=en&cc=uk&dlc=en&product=356273〈=en&docname=bph07178

It states:
"CAUTION: If you cannot configure the Multimedia or Internet keyboard buttons in Windows XP (the buttons tab is missing), download and install HP Multimedia Keyboard/Mouse Driver Update - sp26752 . After you have installed the update, restart the PC and configure the buttons again. This issue occurs when Microsoft update MS06-015 is installed."

Are you using this version of driver?

alot of the configuration can be done in the control panel under the keyboard icon.

This will tell you if you have the right drivers installed.

The OSD can be configured there along with some button configurations of the keyboard itself.
