My '06 iMac keyboard recently gave up the ghost in the form of spacebar and a bunch of other keys all of a sudden not doing anything. I replaced it with an old but fully functional Apple keyboard that once belonged with the '00 G4 tower I used for the first half of the decade. Works fine Mac-side, but to Win XP it doesn't exist. Any ideas what gives? I thought one USB keyboard should be as good as another.

I must've really outdone myself with the stupidity of this question, not to get any response at all.

It is a real question, though. If it's a dumb one than yes, I'm afraid that I am that dumb. Any help much appreciated!

Or it's just that no one really knows the answer... :wink:

Usually, it should be no problem to use a Mac USB keyboard under Windows, but I seem to remember vaguely that the very first Apple USB keyboards were somewhat troublesome on that behalf.

Is yours one of those shown below?

Yep, that's the spittin' image of it.
