I bought a wireless keyboard and mouse set and got the mouse working, but the keyboard won't "connect". I've done all the troubleshooting recommended and nothing. It's such a tease, because the thing picks up the mouse no prob, but the freaking keyboard won't do anything. I've installed the latest and greatest software from the MS website, but still nothing, so I am back to my old corded mouse and keyboard. Has anyone else encountered this? I have the Wireless Optical Mouse and Wireless Multimedia Keyboard. Microsoft sucks!

The Logitech models are very good. I have bought a few of the MX3100 models for people and they all luv'd 'em. I use one myself and have no complaints.

I agree that the Logitech wireless are great. Just make sure you use really good rechargeable batteries. I recently switched back to some new Dell stuff (USB) - I got tired of the battery switching.

Take a look under the keyboard, my Labtec has a button i have
to push to connect to the main unit.
Just a thought.

You might want to enable USB keyboard support in the BIOS if your system has it there as an option. By default it is usually disabled.

The Gyration KBY and mouse are awsome. 22Ft range too. A little expensive I seem to remember, but perfect for microsoft MCE 2005.

Microsoft and Logitech make some of the best computer accessories out there. How old is your keyboard and mouse combo? If you just got it return it for a new one. If it's a bit older, just call MS and they'll send you a new one in the mail in about a week.
