Hi everyone.

I bought a keypad and I'm making some changes in it. I was wondering if keyboards and the like have some sort of memory inside of them, and if so, if I could edit the key maps inside of there.

How do I get into said memory?

And if that's not possible, would I then have to edit the driver?

Keyboards do not have memory of their own.
Memory would not have anything to do with mapping keys and neither would the driver.

To map key functions, you need to use the software designed for that keyboard. If you do not have it installed and no longer have the original CD, perhaps you can download it from the manufacturer's web site.

Typically such software will install an icon in Control Panel for modifying how the keyboard operates.

There may even be third party software available if you search for it.

Good Luck.
