    Has anyone ever written a hardware driver? (Keyboard to be specific)

    I have a keyboard that I can't get drivers for for Win2K - the normal keyboard works, but this one has some multimedia stuff too. Someone suggested I write my own driver for it, so I'm looking for a place to start.

    Anybody got some advice?

    my keyboard didnt have a driver, and has multimedia stuff too.

    I found that there are registry keys already in windows for the multimedia keys on most of the keyboards. try messing with the registry keys located in this location:
    hkey_localmachine/software/microsoft/windows/currentversion/explorer/Appkey
