Check the Microsoft web site,reference the HCL and see if the keyboard is compatible to WIN ME and also if their are any software driver updates

I purchased a similar MS Keyboard, last year and experienced the same problem. The CD that is supplied is out of date and will not work with Win ME, W2K or XP. Microsoft does have an updated version available on their website. If you go there and goto the downloads section you should be able to find it.

I installed a keyboard in that range on XP(it had worked fine on 2000). Almost everything ground to a halt, especially USB peripherals.Serious error messages appearing as well.

Problem turned out to be the keyboard USB connection.When I unpluggedthis everything worked fine with keyboard on the PS/2 port alone.

This was not discovered before a day of uninstalling and reinstalling USB devices and drivers!

Keyboard intellipoint Version 2.1 is latest driver,will probably supercede the CD can be downloaded from MS site. Search under "intellipoint".
