Microsoft Keyboards and mouse drivers support
Hi!
I've got a Microsoft Wireless Multimedia Keyboard 1.1 and Microsoft Wireless Optical Mouse. I've tryed to install Windows XP Drivers (IntelliType Pro 5.x) but doesn't work, doesn't install, got an error message... May be new drivers will develope? Or Microsoft don't release drivers for his own hardware products? |

Like 99% of the hardware/software vendors, they are likely waiting for the
operating system to go RTM (released to manufacturing). They have multiple new builds daily. It would be impossible for anyone to keep up. When Windows XP was first released a few of their own apps had issues. The same thing occurred at the release of SP2 for XP. Note: A few manufacturers have tried to keep current (with varying degrees of success), such as Nvidia and Avast. ATI seems to be falling behind as evidenced by the number of posts about ATI in these newsgroups. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User (For email, remove the obvious from my address) Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!

I seem to have had no issues with the beta drivers. Perhaps just lucky I
guess. "Richard Urban" wrote in message ... Like 99% of the hardware/software vendors, they are likely waiting for the operating system to go RTM (released to manufacturing).

Get Inteelipoint and Intellitype ver 5.5 and head over to this site.
http://neosmart.net/blog/archives/56 I Have them running on 5728. Vista will object about compatability. Just ignore it.

SWEET!
I didn't have the same "Comfort" Mouse, but a drop-down list contained what appeared to be every mouse, including mine. Unfortunately scroll-wheel acceleration no longer appears to be an option, and that was an option I really liked.
