Micro Innovations Internet keyboard

I just purchased a Micro Innovations Internet keyboard KB535BL that has 16 function keys and the only one that works is Power Off.

I searched for drivers for it and found KB535BL-APPROVED_DRIVER-02-07-0735504_02.exe that does the same thing as the CD version.

This is for XP Pro SP3.

I can't tell whether you like it or hate it. :blink:

If you are looking how to set up the other 15 hot keys, download the manual from here and it shows you how to do it.

Just had a look myself after downloading it.

Sorry if you have already done this Kenny

I have the manual.

I'll call their Technical Support helpline when the open 8:30am Monday.

I hope that keyboard lasts for you. A while back, I bought a MI keyboard that only lasted me about a year when a few keys stopped working. There were no spills or any abuse...they just died.

After a few calls to their Technical Support helpline they informed me that SP3 changed the way keyboards are handled so that is why the application software does not work just like it does not work with Vista and they do not have a time frame as to when it will be fixed.

I like the keyboard so far other than the 16 hotkeys not working.

Glad it's sorted Kenny.
