My desktop is using a (POS, obviously) Dell rt7d40 model wireless keyboard along with a wireless mouse that connects to a USB reciever. Everything about that is just dandy but problem is the qwerty and number keys aren't working. It has a volume knob and hotkeys that're working. In device manager there's an HID device with a driver error.
A bit ago the keyboard occasionally would go funky with the keys...but I think that was just a battery issue. I dusted out my desktop and set everything back up and the mouse is working beautifully but suddenly I've had the aforementioned issue.
Anyway I figger'd I'd just go and find the drivers but being the great company they are, it looks like dell doesn't have drivers for its own product on its website!
Fanfuckingtastic.

A few google searches digs up this link thread
And it looks like things there are pretty agreeable.
I like this one:

My experience with Dell is that the products, monitor, keyboard, start failing promptly after 3 years.  When u try to ask dell support to help troubleshoot their answer is ,  "get another one."
Anyway what do I do now D:
lots of karma and buttsecks for help

If you have Vista, I would recommend seeing if Vista can hunt the drivers down for you (also works if you're on Win7).
