    Hello all
    I have got a Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard 1.0A which was working perfectly and i was really happy with it and thought the £79.99 was money well spent until i had to move my computer to a different room. But when i set up the computer in it's new location the keyboard has refused to work at all? I've changed the batteries and even called it'd manufacturers some choice names but it still won't budge. Can't remember if there was an installation disk that came with it when purchased. I run Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. Any help would be really appreciated.
    Hope everyone enjoyed their Christmas. Granv

    Hiya Steve
    I didn't knowingly hit the reset button. But when i had set up the computer once again the computer would make a single beeping noise when i did try and fail to use the keyboard?

    Sorry, I meant the Keyboard should have a reset/reconnect type button on the bottom of it.

    Hiya Steve
    I have only clicked on the reset button since it has stopped functioning. Thinking thatit might have been out of sync. Don't know if i'm right but i was using Nickel-Cadmium batteries when the recommended type should have been standard AA 1.5 volt Alkaline batteries. Anything is worth a go i suppose. Granv
