Multimedia keys works do not (sort of)

Hello!

I have a problem with the multimedia keys on my keyboard (Zalman K200M). However, there is no dedicated driver from the producer.
When I installed a fresh W8.1 all the multimedia keys worked fine (mail, internet, calc, WMP control) and while they began the system default programs.

1 * when I installed an of Comodo Dragon browser and Mozilla Thunderbird keys seem to stop working...
Well, they work when the programs are already open ('House' opens the homepage and 'mail' will to thunderbird).
Meanwhile, media control buttons (play, back/next) brought on player Winyl, any type of program was running.

2 * looking for a solution, I installed the centre of keyboard and mouse. Unfortunately, it does not support my keyboard BUT just install the program made the 'House' and 'mail' buttons work - now I can open my programs from anywhere. But now the media control keys only work if the window Winyl is chosen. With WMP, they work very well.

Uninstalling the mouse and the keyboard Center keeps me coming back to 1 *.

Is it possible to make all keys work with customized programs?

Hi Tornadow,

Please contact Microsoft Community.

I understand that the multimedia and special keys do not work on your keyboard. You may experience this problem if the necessary drivers are corrupt or if the equipment is defective.

Microsoft provides generic drivers for most of the keyboards, however the specific function as multimedia keyboard functions are handled by the manufacturer-specific triggers. Center Microsoft Mouse and keyboard will allow some Windows features.

Download mouse and keyboard Center to get the best out of Windows 8

I suggest you contact the manufacturer of the keyboard for functions.

    Hello

    Maybe there is no contact this button.
    As far as I know, you can not solve simple buttons. You can remove the key caps but I put that this problem is related to the plug defective or similar then it seems that you need to replace the keyboard.
    Keyboard can be ordered from Toshiba ASP in your country. If you have no experience in the replacement of parts, then I recommend asking a support technician.

    Good luck

    Hello

    First of all, you should check if the buttons are selected. (Is selected)
    Then check if the option has been selected for the simple buttons.

    Very important is the installation of the common modules. Without this additional demand it possible s Toshiba controls will not work.

  • HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC: HP Envy 15 action keys works do not (F9, F10 and F11)

    My laptop has been working fine since purchase, but last week, I noticed that action F10 F10 & F9 keys (jump, play/pause, skip) did not work for their function. Before last week I could just press the key to activate, I read other posts of this forum and the answers did not work pressing fn + alt + (key action), either by pressing fn + key action. To make this work I need to access the bios screen and change the default values, but it only works when the laptop is on. If I turn the laptop, turn again he resorts right back to does not. Action all other keys work e.g. keyboard backlight, volume, brightness, etc.

    Any solutions would be welcome.

    Thank you.

    Hello @Spudy96,

    Thank you for your quick response!

    You can try to perform a System Restore.  If this does not work, then you could also try to install the previous version of the BIOS of your Support Site.  Let me know how it goes.

    Good luck!

  • Dell KB213 - how to make multimedia keys work?

    I wonder how to get the sound and video keys (as well as the ' Moon') to do something on my new XPS 8700 machine.  Currently, they seem to be ineffective.

    So far, I can't find any records for this keyboard.  'Help' has keyboards a lot of facts about the old fashioned with PrntScrn NumLock and Pause/break keys, but not what Dell supplied with my Special Edition XPS 8700.

    And while I'm, what happened to the adjustment of the angle?  This keyboard is too flat on my desk to type easily.  Maybe I'll just spend my old Dell keyboard of nine year for this one!

  • HP Envy 13-d008na: slash reverse/Pipe key works is not on the keyboard

    Hi all

    Have a new laptop 'Renew '. The key backslash on the laptop keyboard is unresponsive. Searching online, I suspect a BIOS update may be necessary, but this has been reported for other laptops HP, not this specific model, so may be barking the wrong tree!

    Product number is P0R94EA

    Thank you

    Tim

    Well no earlier than 10 minutes after I posted this article, I found an acceptable workaround solution. I downloaded SharpKeys, which enabled me to map the backslash with a backslash key. The results were then written in the registry and hey presto - a touch of bar backslash work. Job is a good use as they say

  • Control keys works do not, Win8 to Win7 downgrade. HP envy j011dx

    I have a HP Envy j011dx provided with Edition (64b9t) to the home page of Windows 8. I put in an SSD and improved RAM and installed Win 7 Pro(64bit). Everything is working great except control keys do not work.  When I hit the left ctrl key, I get [9 - and CTRL right, I get, l;]
    I have searched and tried a few different drivers looked at messages on the demotion to 7 and have not seen anything on this issue. I ran all the updates of windows and tried several different drivers. I put the old HD with W8, and it works if it is not a hardware problem. I looked at the origin of this post before doing the downgrade and it gave me the confidence to move forward with implementing Win7 on. I have until Friday to take this back to the store if I can't make it work. Any help would be appreciated. I also checked the region/language settings.

    I discovered what it was! Hallelujah! Good so I uninstalled and reinstalled Win7 Pro like 8 times. The driver IDT High - Definition (HD) is that he was causing.

    Finally, I noticed that when I hit the left CTRL mute volume was turn. Then when I hit the button Mute ctrl will work correctly. Mute on this subject would not work. Mute off it would work. I unsintalld the driver and re-installed several times to ensure that it is definitley the origin of the problem. Keys mute and volume were workign regardless if the driver has been installed. I was making reference to article http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Operating-Systems-and-Software/Downgrade-HP-ENVY-15-j011dx-to-windows-7-need-help-finding/td-p/3768928 to get the rest of the drivers. WEIRD question but it is the IDT Audio, 1.0.6491.0 Version 6.10.6491 Rev: A SoftPaqNumber: SP4958 that was originally there. It's SP4958.exe. Whooo! It was a guy. I'm so happy that I found it. I like really a few Windows 7. Not looking navigation on Windows 8 and 8.1 at all!

  • HP ENVY N9Q53EA #ABU: HP Envy Hot keys works do not for example the volume brightness keys

    Hello

    Having a problem with my laptop keyboard where the function hotkey keys have suddenly stopped to work as they did. By pressing the hot keys results in an f1-12 rather than the previous function of volume change, keyboard toggle and change the brightness etc.

    This happened when install me some new drivers for an audio interface, so can be linked to that. Ive tried to go into the BIOS and toggle on and outside keyboard shortcut option and install software quick launch hp but nothing has worked so far.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated
