Prob #3 MS Intellipoint 6.3 and W-7 64-bit

[Valorie *~]

I have Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Software called IntelliPoint 6.3 that
will not work with W-7 64-bit. Googling didn't bring up any patches or way
I can continue using this well loved keyboard on W-7 64-bit. I found 64-bit
for Vista but not 64-bit for W-7. Can anyone help with this problem since
the keyboard now works like a cheap $10 special and not the Keyboard it is.
None of the buttons work, only the keys work.

What's to say that the Vista driver won't work on Win 7? I have don
that, used something on the Windows O/S and implemented on another
version. Vista and Win 7 are just about the same O/S. So what do you
have to loose in using the Vista driver on Win 7?

Download the InteliPoint version 7 for both the mouse and the keyboard. The driver
for Win 7 comes with it

I tried that. It wouldn't work. In desperation I did more Googling and hit
on a beta version of the drivers for W-7 64-bit here:

These work and I have my beloved keyboard working again. I have been unable
to find another keyboard like this in any of the stores. I think I'm going
online to see if I can find a few as backups and to use on the other PCs.

Thanks... I found this one after giving Goole on last shot. I didn't know
it was called version 7 or I would have found it faster.

Try here:
Oh and Intellipoint 6.3 is driver version, not the name of an MS mouse.
Look on the bottom of your mouse and you'll see the model.

For drivers go here.
