Hey all,

I have a computer set up to primarily run Digidesign Pro Tools, and their software is unable to run under Service Pack 2. Long story, but trust me, it doesn't work under it.

Here's the problem... I got my Microsoft Explorer Mouse For Bluetooth to work under SP1 by installing the Intellipoint 4.9 drivers (which were released only on cd with the original version of the mouse... had to download them off of driversguide.com). Now, I picked up a bluetooth keyboard from microsoft, because I love using my bluetooth mouse. The computer reads it, but it wont let me connect to it. When it goes to pair them together, the pairing number stays greyed out, and when I type it in on the keyboard it says it was unable to pair. It was obviously reading the keyboard though, because the error message occurs when I hit enter on the keyboard.

Any suggestions? Does anybody have the SP1-friendly version of the Intellitype software? Driversguide unfortunately doesn't have it.

Apparently I need Intellitype Pro 2.3, or at least that is the driver version made for SP! and this keyboard... can anyone help me find it?
