extra keyboard buttons dont work after format

Can anyone let me know what drivers i need to get my keyboard fully operational (vol buttons, calc button, etc) again.

After I reformatted my HD I lost all my drivers, but even though the keys function properly, its time now that i got it sorted.

Its a standard Compaq Presario (UK) ps2 keyboard.

Any help would be well appreciated.

Cammy.

Hello ,

follow this link

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...DisplayLang=en

you will need to watch & see if it works with your keyboard for it will work with some of compaq' s keyboards / i used to use it all the time

unless compaq has changed the firmware of their keyboard

Hello

i think your system may be infected

i clicked on the links and they all work fine

if they dont work for you then that may mean you have a redirector (maleware)

so

what you need to do is follow this link

http://www.techsupportforum.com/secu...oval-help.html

for this to work properly you must follow all instructions

if you can not compleat a step make a note and then move to the next step

save all logs to the desktop for ease of reposting

when you have compleated the steps do not post back here you must start a ne post in the (Highjackthis Forum log help forum) of this site

stand strong for the techs there are busy
