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.

    Here's what I did.

     

    1. If your Windows user account has a log-in password, you'll want to disable/delete it first. 
    2. Go into System, Device Manager, Keyboard Device, Right click on Properties, Go to Driver, Click Uninstall (Advanced). 
    3. Unplug your keyboard from the back of your computer.
    4. Reboot your computer.
    5. After Windows comes up, plug your keyboard back into your computer, and then reboot.

     

    It worked for me.

    I wish it worked for me I tried it twice but still the problem persists....... I'll leave it marked as the proposed answer because it seems to be working for some of us :)

    Is there a better place to post this so Microsoft gets the message? eg. different forum?

    Hi,

     

    I've encountered the same problem while trying to update my IntelliType drivers to the latest build (8.01) through M$U. The only solution to the problem is to download and install the full standalone installer for both IntelliPoint and IntelliType software. However, the standalone packages for both Windows and Mac versions aren't currently available from the hardware page yet.

     

    I use a Digital Media Pro keyboard and an IntelliMouse Optical 1.1.

    Do you have a link for the full-install package? Same issue on Win7x64 Ultimate with Service Pack 1. Tried uninstalling driver, uninstalling ITP software, etc. Problem is, MS goes out to WU to get the latest driver when you reinstall, so the problem remains. Thanks.
