I have recently purchased a Microsoft Wireless Comfort Desktop 5000 keyboard.

The Inteli Type Pro 7.0 software lists my keyboard, however, when I chose it from the list it will not let me configure the keyboard and keeps defaulting to a Wireless Desktop Elite Keyboard resulting in the hot keys on my keyboard useless. I have downloaded updates from Microsoft for the Inteli Type Pro but to no avail.

My OS is windows 7, 32-bit

Can anyone held.
