  1. Microsoft optical receiver compatability


    I have a Microsoft 1.1 Keyboard that stopped working. It pairs with the Microsoft 2.1 optical receiver, which is still working with the Microsoft 2000 mouse. My question is, will ANY 1.1 keyboard work with my current optical receiver? Or do I have to replace everything? The mouse, receiver and keyboard came as a package.

    :)

    Optical Drive Issue

    Hello Anak –

    Appreciate your detailed return. Your added steps really helped.

    Assuming I did the steps correctly, this is where I am now.

    Screenshot 12 shows my CD Disc shortcut on my desktop.
    Screenshot 10 shows the CD Drive shortcut listed in the “Send to” listing.
    Screenshot 11 shows the “Send to” listing after the steps were taken, but the CD drive name is not listed.

    So, it appears the steps did not work for me. And, I did try the steps, “If it still won’t do ……” and still no luck.

    What do you think?

    JerryA
