Here's what I've tried: 1) Installing supplied disc software after plugging keyboard into USB socket. Restart computer, keyboard illuminates and is functional. Starting Windows logo - keyboard switches off, no response 2) Tried different driver versions from Razor website (forwarded from Microsoft). 1.02, 1.04 & 1.05 (currently most recent and said to work with win7 64-bit. Restart - same response. 3) checked in my BIOS settings (using the keyboard - it works in DOS and POST, remember!).
Razer Starcraft Ii Keyboard Driver 1.04 For Mac Download
I have a Gigabyte board and have made sure that as many USB and keyboard options are 'Enabled' in the integrated peripherals section. 4) Tried changing and updating drivers every which way on the Hardware manager and Ctrl PanelHardware & SoundDevices and Printers. Troubleshooters and automatic driver updates yield nothing. Bluestacks appplayer v0.9.30.423902 for mac.
The device states that it has no driver and none is available. Have directed the driver update to an unzipped version of the download from Razer but it finds nothing. 5) have tried all the above again using XP compatibility settings - no help. Microsoft OS, Microsoft keyboard - what's the problem. Really very frustrated.
