for my Windows 7 Pro 64 bit system now every time i reboot the computer windows automatically downloads and then installs the Microsoft intellitype pro software. First apun rebooting I get the small icon in the system tray that indicates that something is being installed i click on it i then get a message telling me [Driver software installation / Installing device driver software / Microsoft hardware USB keyboard] then after that i get another window that pops up this one says: [Downloading Microsoft Intellitype Pro / Driver installation complete. Downloading keyboard configuration software (Microsoft IntelliType Pro) after that a bubble appears in my system tray telling me that the device had been installed sucessfully.

Then life goes on ...... But i would like to know what happened so I can stop this, its very annoying

Some things I have done to try to fix the problem

1.) Uninstalled the microsoft intellitype pro 8.0 and the Microsoft intellipoint 8.0 software from add remove programs list... reboot ...problem still exists

  1. uninstalled devices from device manager... reboot... problem still exists
  2. moved both keyboard and bouse to different usb ports... reboot... problem still exists

I was hoping someone else had some more ideas :)

THANK YOU!

PS I have Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard 3000 v1.0

Mouse drivers were installed & works just fine No Problems there!

OK. It now works. Just restart your machine and let the download happen on it's own. the intelitype application will install with the latest drivers and settings application.

Good luck.

Lets hear other's success.

    Okay, Yes, I did that. Then it says I have the old driver. There is no other Intellitype driver package newer than 8.0.225.0(driver version 8.0.219.0).

    Thanks,

    I've tried all of the above tricks. None work. When I scan for hardware changes, it comes back with what is supposed to the new driver, but then it starts with the download of the new keyboard configuration software.  When I recheck the driver version, it says 8.0.219.0

    Device manager says I have "Microsoft USB dual receiver Wireless keyboard(Intellipoint Pro)"

    I do in fact have a "Wireless multimedia keyboard" and "Wireless Laser mouse 5000".

    Intellipoint version 8.1.249.0

    Intellitype version 8.0.225.0

    Thanks,

    Leighton
