[Krustie]

Anywho..

I recently bought a new keyboard and mouse..

Upon installtion i've managed to get the mouse to work, but i'm having problems getting the keyboard to be noticed as hardware.

I'm running this on windows xp service pack 2, if it helps.

Anyone have any recommendations on what i shall do?

Regards, Dan.

Did you hit the little button on the bottom of the keyboard?

 

[Krustie]

Yes.. and it's still not working

are both plugs pluged in, and the keyboard ps/2 connector in the right socket
also is there a button on the receiver to push?

 

[Krustie]

yeah, all plugged in and there is a button.

if it has a ps/2 plug and a USB plug, on Microsoft wireless keyboards/mouse combos, you don't need to plug in the ps/2 plug.

So, try that. Try plugging in only the USB plug. Make sure you reboot.
