Appendix B

Resolving USB Installation Issues

The USB HID (Human Interface Device) keyboard driver is standard with Windows®. Most recent versions of Windows include necessary files in the installed Windows system folders so driver installation is easy if not automatic. It is possible for the user to cancel the HID driver installation before it is completed and this results in a problem. Restarting Windows does NOT initiate a re-installation; the user must go into the device management utility in Windows. Location and operation of the device management utility is different depending on the version of Windows:

If XP fails to find the driver on the computer's hard disk, you may have to insert and point to the original Windows XP CD-ROM to complete the installation. Also make sure you have rights to add new hardware to your computer - some
