Keyboard Media Keys Not Working with any Media Player (VLC,iTunes,WMP)

[Liammail7]

Hello all,

I have been having a problem with my CoolerMaster Quickfire XT Stealth (Cherry Green Edition) Media Keys...

I have tried to reinstall the drivers, I have gone to services and set HID on and to automatic, I have connected via PS2 and USB. In all media players I attempt to push one of the buttons and i get the blue spinny loading wheel on my cursor. the media keys are actuated via a FN button which works for volume and Windows Key Lock. the media keys are located on F5-F8 via the FN Button as stated earlier. I am so lost now I will try anything to get this (2 Week old) Keyboard to work...

SOLVED
with this methode ( http://www.sevenforums.com/drivers/37099-no-working-media-buttons-keyboard.html )

- Go to controlpanel --> Performance and maintenance --> Administrative tools

- Choose services and scroll down to find "Human interface devices"

- Right click and choose properties --> and change startup type from manual to automatic --> Reboot and your media buttons should now be working again!


At least it did here, and i'm now happy with my new keyboard!
