I've been trying to pair my Microsoft Wireless Keyboard 7000 and have not been having any luck discovering the device. It came with a Laser Mouse 8000 which has paired successfully. Anyone else having a similar issue? I tried searching around, but no luck so far. Thanks for any help in advance.

I also posted this thread under General Discussion because I was unsure what board this question would fit best!

hello MrVagabond and welcome..
at what point does the pairing fail?
since you said that the you have successfully paired your mouse this means that it shouldnt be a driver issue (this is a bluetooth pairing correct?) at least with the bluetooth dongle...
is this the first time you pair the device or have you paired it before with another OS in the another system (prefferably a Windows Vista) and can you confirm it works?

I've successfully paired the keyboard with XP before and have had it work in 7 as well. However, now when I Add Device and put the keyboard in discoverable mode, Win 7 does not find anything. I can unpair and rediscover my mouse without any problems though. I've tried fresh batteries and that does not help.

I'll leave this one here as this may end up being a driver issue and delete the other.

ok so what you are saying is that your bluetooth device cannot discover the keyboard but it can discover the mouse....

are the your bluetooth setting like this?

also check your kb manual just in case if you any setting that might stop it from make it discoverable
can you also check for any windows updates for your bluetooth device...
and if that does not work can you try the vista drivers...

I have those drivers installed and no success there.

Also, my bluetooth settings do match those of the picture. However, I'm unable to know if the documentation mentions any specific settings. The links for the pdfs on Microsofts site seem to be dead.

can you post a pic of your settings?

I'm using a Broadcomm USB dongle and I'm not sure I understand what settings you mean by the bluetooth settings.

Oh, the pic I attached before was a screen of my settings. Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer is set. That is how I have no problems with my mouse.

The dongle seems to be operating properly. Device Manager doesn't display anything wrong with the USB port it's using.

What specifically should I be looking for there?

I purchased the keyboard OEM so it didn't come with the MS dongle. Originally, I was able to pair using it no problem though.

Found a Fix?

Hello i am running in to the same problem i think. I can pair my mouse and i can also pair my keyboard but when i go to type nothing happens but my mouse works fine.

I am also using a generic bluetooth dongle.

Just wondering if you have found a fix for the problem yet?

Also my orginal dongle that came with it is being reconnized as a Generic USB hub anyone know why? is the dongle faulty or is it windows 7 driver issues?
