Hello BH,
Thanks for getting back to me. I am not sure I understand where you are going with your answer. I installed all the drivers that the new operating system (Windows 8 Pro) told me to do. When I accessed the HP software download site for my system (HP Pavilion e9180t) there was nothing there for Windows 8.
Under Original HP Drivers (Vista), the closes thing I could find was
"2009-10-19, Version1.0.7.1,7.43M"
Original driver for the HP multimedia Keyboard solutions. (sp44447.exe)
I don't know if this is correct and its so old I am concern it may hang the box. Help!
