Dell Bluetooth Keyboard and Driver

[theborgopass]

I have a Bluetooth keyboard and mouse set that have a few issues. All the fuctions worked in XP but now they dont in Windows 7. They respond faster in Windows 7 than they did in XP which is great but parts don’t work. On the Mouse, the forward and backwards side buttons for IE do not work, along with the scroll button. I can click it and it will allow me to motion through a pages but it won’t do scrolling. With the keyboard I can no longer use the hot keys at the top for volume, calculator, home, etc... Not a big deal but would still like to use them. If you anyone has any ideas let me know.

I had exactly the same problem and unfortunately Dell technical support were no help. As far as I can gather the Bluetooth keyboard and mouse are supplied to Dell by Logitech and the software that enables the higher level functions is called Setpoint. Version 4.80 is compatible with Windows 7 and should make all the keys work. I downloaded it from FileHippo. Good luck!

First off have you gone to Dells site and found either Vista or Windows seven drivers for it? If not then you'll need to install the XP as well as the Vista drivers in compatibility mode.http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/316-compatibility-mode.html

It would also be nice to know the make and model number of your keyboard and mouse as well as all the rest of your system specs for later on. You can fill them in here

Canned compressed air. Also before you try to remove your keyboard I suggest you Download your manual it might help with finding where the screws are and what cables to look for when removing it and how far you can move the keyboard before having to remove the cable ribbon(s).

If this is the same keyboard then here is another thread on it,if not I'm sure their are some suggestions that may apply http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/48389-dell-studio-1535-keyboard-driver.html
