    Alright i just go this new keyboard Microsoft with fingerprint. I hooked it up and installed the software. The lights flash once and go off again, keyboard turns off. I tried hooking it up to diffrent ports, reinstalling the thing, restarting... In the device manager it says its working propertly , but obviously its not...

    any suggestions?

    Did U Restart?
    Reed The Box, It Might Be Only Compatible With A Specific OS ( operating System )

    Other Than That I Have No Idea

    I would go with what CWD said. It probablly is only compatable with a certain OS.

    Hmm... Im SOrry I Cant Help U Any Further For My Skills at Computing Are Rather Poor.
    It Could Just Be, small chance, but one nonetheless, that is a manufacture malfunction.

    its either a malfunction, or you need to reinstall it when the keyboard is plugged in...?
