Wanna try something for me: 1. Press the calculator key above the numeric keypad. If it doesn't work install the intellitype pro v7 beta. The following is the important information of Microsoft Comfort Curve Keyboard 2000 installation driver. Click on Download Now and a File Download box will appear. Then it will work 2. After installing this, try to use the VOLUME up and VOLUME down keys. Don't work even with the intellitype. Calculator works with intellitype, however it doesn't come to the foreground so you can't start typing into it without clicking the taskbar. So the final is: 1. Windows XP and VISTA have native support for the extra keys without any drivers, windows 7 requires to install intellitype. Even after installing volume keys don't work, and calculator doesn't come to foreground. Finally, I reported this to microsoft and I was asked the usual canned questions (policy, I know) Finally was asked if I wanted to try different support options when all I wanted to do was report a bug. All good it's hard to manage communications across such a large organization such as msft. I suggest that MS add a bug reporting page to their website. That would alleviate some of these scenarios. Can't remember what I said that was offensive as it was deleted now I can't see it. Hmm oh well I was a bit annoyed that it didn't work out of the box, since I've been very happy with this keyboard, and have 3 of them, use one at work, and one at home. And have bought one for a friend, and convinced 2 other friends to buy the same keyboard. So you could say I'm a fan of this Comfort Curve 2000 keyboard. Just irritated that it doesn't work out-of-the-box without drivers as it has since windows XP. But I understand things change, and with the driver it does kind-of work. Just hope that someone actually knows about this issue is perhaps working to correct it. Volume up-down keys don't work 2. Calculator key doesn't bring calculator to foreground so you can start typing immediately, instead you have to use mouse or another key combo to switch it. None of the extra media etc keys work at all without Intellitype installed. To all those reading this post it appears that I was being offensive but I respectfully disagree since I don't have the original message so I can't read it to tell if it was actually offensive. Anyway good luck to all and to all a good night:). Gaspard, We encourage you to participate in these forums and to ask your questions, but you need to refrain from using phrases that are offensive. You can certainly get your point across without using terms that may offend certain groups. Refer to the. Additional infractions will cause us to permanently ban you. -Tony Mann Windows Client IT Pro Audience Manager for Web Forums, Windows Client Forum Owner I am bringing this up because I want to ask, is it all right to refer directly or indirectly to things that may be different or 'fixed' in future builds of Windows 7? For example if someone said 'My keyboard doesn't like the shotcut 'Alt-k', and someone replied 'That's been fixed as of version xx.yy' offensive (btw) the editor as I see it blocks out words, presumably from a list Anyway, I do have a microoft curved keyboard.
