Multimedia key stopped working for some reason

[Supra107]

Hi, i am using Esperanza Titanum Ranger TK105 which has some multimedia buttons. They worked fine with Winamp until i tested a keyboard for my friend, Esperanza Dallas. It had more multimedia buttons than mine, and they worked fine too. Then Windows Update said to install some HID Drivers, and i tried to install them and boom. The button stopped working. The button i use the most.

nd i don't know how to fix it. I tried everything. Uninstalling drivers, replugging the keyboard, everything works except tis one GODDAMN BUTTON.

The driver it told me to install was LifeWorks Technology Group LLC - Input - USB Human Interface Device.

So, can anyone help me?

Hi

Have you tried reinstall the software that came with the keyboard.

 

[Supra107]

It didn't had any drivers. It didn't even had the manual.

I tried looking up the keyboard to find information on it but I can't read the language the websites are in. I would of thought their would be software drivers you need to install to use multimedia keys. Maybe go to device manager and roll back driver.

Can you give me the link to this website?
Also, i don't have the option to restore old drivers.

Just watched a YouTube video on unpacking the keyboard and doesn't seem to have disk. So would think windows provides it.

I've seen that site, they doesn't have drivers. It's a generic keyboard, which works after plugging it in.

I would think if it has Special Function Keys ... Then there must be Software .. Maybe they have another Website in your Country ?

Try a restore point before you tested friends keyboard

I tried to restore the system, but it got an error and didn't restored the system settings.

Also, those keys are supported by Windows, but it seems that some sort of driver must been playing with it and broke it. I don't know.

Try a system file checker. http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1538-sfc-scannow-command-system-file-checker.html

Hm, maybe if i would restart the keyboard driver it could work, but i don't know how.

 

[Supra107]

Well, i deleted the driver which i putted in before (it was a driver that WU wanted to install, i downloaded manual version) and...

Every media button doesn't work. Now i need a new driver for it.

You should be Able to rollback the driver.

 

[oscer1]

Did you try what was posted in post 12

 

[Supra107]

Yes, and it didn't worked.

Also, i found out the... "cause"? Of the problem. It's the driver that WU wanted to shove into my computer. I disabled it, and it disabled the media key. I have NO GODDAMN IDEA how to fix it. Windows is a b*tch, same as Micro$hit.

 

[Supra107]

Anyways, i'm gonna live without them. It's not like a blood pump in a computer. I've setted up new key shortcuts in Winamp, and they are also comfortable.

Anyways, thanks for help!

 

[oscer1]

Your welcome. I know their other problems if you can't go to a restore point.

I discovered something. I've connected that keyboard again, and... IT... WORKS...

AND MINE IS NOT WORKING. WHAT IS THIS SORCERY.

Maybe something in registry needs to be fixed. I'll see what i can do.
