HP multimedia keyboard drivers required

Also, what operating system?

sorry! im running XP Home with SP2

Keyboard software/driver.

You might also want to check that you have the correct keyboard settings.

Click start/control panel/Regional and Language Options/Languages/Details.

Make sure the everything is set to UK. Click apply/ok.

Thanks for the link - will check my settings are set to UK, then test the drivers if required and report back!

Hi

Thanks for all the advice. I found (in a deep dark corner within the language settings) that i had US settings ad have manage to get the @ key to act as an @ key, but ive still got a problem of the alt key being a shortcut to the HP centre and ctrl-alt-del not working - this is after i tried the drivers from the link above as well as some standard 101/102 keyboard drivers off the XP disc (for just for the hell of it)

Try using ctrl/shift/escape for task manager.

I`m not sure what`s causing the HP centre problem.

Regards Howard

5302 is NOT the model of the computer. There is no such animal. Closest is a zv5302EA. We need the HP model on the front bezel, and the back label of the computer. Do you no longer have the HP restore discs?
Did you replace the HP version of the operating system with one of your own.
A regular non-hp keyboard should work fine, and cost you less than $5.00 refurbished. I suspect that your use of a specialized keyboard made for another computer is the root of your problem. The specialized keyboards are only made to work on a limited set of computers.

In fact, I will bet you money that if this is a desktop computer, HP or not, that a regular keyboard will work fine... and that the keyboard made for that particular model will work fine.

Thanks Howard - ctrl, shift and esc does bring up the task manager!

raybay - no 5302 is the model number of the keyboard, the old HP case is gone, long gone! along with the HP version of the OS and restore discs!

ill scrub the drivers and try a regular generic keyboard and see if i get any problems - thanks for the advance!

Then you cannot expect the keyboard to work properly... a highly proprietary keyboard tied to a proprietary computer setup... when keyboards are so common we throw away 50 a week in our shop. I will send you a box of 12 tested ones free for shipping reimbursement only.
Drivers are not going to help.
