Multimedia Keyboard

[midocr]

I've got an HP Multimedia Keyboard that came with a Pavilion 8260.
Anyone know where I can get the drivers and software, so I can use and
program all the shortcut buttons and media player controls, that will
work with XP? Thanks!

Go to the support pages, choose downloads, choose Pavilion 8260, choose
OS...it'll be there somewhere.

HP didn't release Windows XP updates for the 8260. At one time, the
company that made the keyboards for Hp had newer updates than Hp. I
don't remember the name of the company though.

Try netropa.com. They just did the drivers, not the actual keyboards.
Model number of the keyboard should be on the bottom side.

I went to the netropa site for mine, but they steer you to HP for the HP
models. I found this HP site for them:

They do try to direct you to HP for support, but the drivers for the
SK-xxxx keyboards are useable. At one time, the code distributed by
netropa was free of the pings and redirects that were built into the HP
versions of the drivers. Not sure if that's still true:
