I'm looking for the same driver, have you found it yet? I just spent all day on HP's website, and on the phone with them. I got nothing. I told them if I found it I'd send it to them - he laughed. So PLEASE!! a little bit of help here! I have a working driver BUT the lights around the top buttons don't come on, they're pretty lights and I like them! lol

There's a few SK-xxxx drivers posted here if you wish to try any of them:

Nope. Haven't located the precise driver I'm looking for. However, the driver I'm using (SK-2665 P/N 5185-2027 mmk_xp.exe from DRIVERGUIDE.COM) WILL activate the blue keyboard lights as well as utilize the volume control knob on the keyboard. All the other 20 keyboard function buttons operate also. Albeit they are already preset. The only thing I'm missing is the ability to access the keyboard property panel which will allow you to reprogram the above buttons, i.e., "shopping, sports, finance," etc., to your particular preference. Hope this helps.

In addition to the above information, below is a url to a web page that provides detailed information on downloading and installing the appropriate driver and XP update for your keyboard. Unfortunately, for some reason, it doesn't allow for the activation of the 7 "blue keyboard lights." However, it will give you instructions on how to map the internet keys with complete functionality of the keyboard. If you are not interested in mapping the keys and just want the lights with other key functions, just download the driver (SK-2565 P/N 5185-2027 mmk_xp.exe), and not the update. When I discover how to activate the lights, I'll contact you.
