Microsoft Natural Keyboard Support in WinNT 4.0.
Registered owners of IntelliType software for Windows NT can get a free upgrade by calling the Microsoft Upgrade Center at 1 800 360 7561. I believe you are better off without the IntelliType software as WinNT 4.0 provides native support for this keyboard. Use of IntelliType prevents 3 button mouse configuration. The following key combinitions are supported by the NT Native drivers: WIN + R...........................Display the Run dialog box. WIN + M...........................Minimize all open windows. WIN + Shift + M.................Undo Minimize all windows WIN + F1..........................Help WIN + E............................Explorer WIN + F............................Find Files/Folders. CNTRL+ WIN + F................Find Computer. WIN + TAB........................Cycle the minimized taskbar icons. WIN + BREAK.....................Systems Properties.
What Does WinNT Know About my SCSI Devices?
