Hi yall,

Just wonder if you guys ever install drivers for yoru keyboard, mouse etc.

I bought a new mouse and keyboard but was wondering if I should be installing the drivers if at all...

So I was wondering if anyone of you people actually bother to install the software drivers for the periperhals...

TIA!

For standard peripherals in XP Pro or Vista - it is normally not necessary. Some are needed for Win98.

No drivers are necessary for keyboards or mice UNLESS you have ones with additional functionality like hotkeys, or button assignment.
