I'm using this keyboard:


I've had no problems for years. I recently just started using it again and I'm finding that it doesn't stay "on" anymore (at least not for long at all). I can tell this because the Num Lock key (light) will suddenly go off and none of the keys will work. Do I need to update drivers? I've tried looking but everyone seems to be saying that I need the driver disc from apple. (Which I don't have).

The computer that I'm using it for is running Windows XP, if that makes a difference?

I'm pretty sure Apple keyboards are plug n play, you don't really need any drivers(as are most keyboards). It sounds more like the USB cord/plug got damaged. I had the same issue with a few of my mice and my old Microsoft keyboard, they would sporadically stop working.

I booted in safe mode and it works perfectly...

I uninstalled the device from device manager and reinstalled it. Booting again now in normal mode.

Edited:

Fixed, close this thread now please

Using the "newer" version now (white, usb ports are on the back next to the cable) and I can say it sucks. Maybe it would be ok if you used Mac OS, though.

I liked the mac keyboards with a "break" button. Unfortunately mine is broken so the keyboard still works.
