Drivers? For what? If you mean for the mouse, you don't need one. Most
the HP_HIL devices should be recognized automaticly. A few like the ID
unit and sound stuff aren't but they're not intended to work on the Vectra
anyway.

It's a standard keybaord that's used for many computers. The other keys
are used for the other systems. "Menu" turns the menu at the bottom of the
screen off and on on the 9000 series computers. "Reset" causes a 9000 to
abort the current program and reset the operating system (usually BASIc,
Pascal, etc).

Yeah, I have a similar problem on my Vectra too, except I'm using a
standard PC keyboard and all the keys seem to work. I'm not sure what's
causing it but I'm hoping there may be something in setup that affects it.
I haven't looked for the setup disks yet but they're supposed to be
available on HP's website.
