Can't install a new Ideas in Motion keyboard - XP can't find driver.
Buy a different one? Ay ideas making this one work?

The old keyboard is full of dust and cleaning it just makes keys stick
worse.

TIA



I finally got a new keyboard, an Onn from Walmart. Never heard of that
company but it works!



Having system problem with new keyboard. The Windows XP New Hardware
Install Wizard keeps returning. Keyboard does seem to work ok though.
Wizard finally says it may not work. sigh

Microsoft must have spent years and paid out millions of dollars to hire
people, who did nothing but find ways to annoy, irritate, and **** off
it's customers. If they had spent half that time, money and effort into
making Windows work properly without all the annoyances, they could have
not only created much better operating systems, but saved a lot of
wasted time and money. Not ot mention having a more favorable
reputation.

It never ceases to amaze me how windows will insist on something that is
not needed, and will pester the user for eternity over some trivial
nonsense that is not even needed. The keyboard is working, but for all
eternity, you will be annoyed by this bull****, unless you do something
about it, and waste many hours trying to fix something that is not even
broken.

It's no different with those ****ing "System Volume Information" files
that are created on every flash drive, portable Hard Drive and damn near
everything else I plug into my XP computers. I have all of System
Restore completely disabled, yet XP insists on putting those worthless
SVI files on everything it touches. It's like "What part of the word
*NO* dont you understand?". I would not mind so much of they were just
on my installed Hard drives, but putting that **** on every portable
drive is annoying as hell. And Windows wont let me delete them. I can
delete them on my Win98 computer, or boot to linux and remove them, or
probably even remove them from Dos, but why bother. As soon as I plug
into XP, they will return, and keep doing so for eternity.....

I always thought that MS has persons working there who just work there,
because they want to torture people with their annoyances....
I can only guess these people hate humanity and it makes them get an
erection to create these things that torture everyone who touches a
computer. It must be some psychotic urge to make them feel like they
have power, because in real life they are social losers.
