i need to get a driver for my keyboard. i dont know where to get one though.
normal keyboards do not need a driver. If this has other features, then you need to tell thje make and model.
PS/2 connection keyboards will work with any PC form the last 20+ years ( PS/2 are purple circular). If it doesn't work then check the pin's are straight. USB keyboards should work with most form the pas 5 years, though some PC's may not let you use them in the BIOS. If you have special keyboards, like Z-board or other gaming/multimedia keyboards then you may need to get a driver, just google the brand and model of your keyboard. If it's not a USB model in an pre-XP PC, or a gaming/multimedia keyboard then your keyboard is probably broken, buy a new one, there pretty cheap. Edit: Have you tried putting other stuff in the same USB port? or used the keyboard on other computers? the USB port your using may be fried, or your keyboards may be fried.
Windows has generic drivers for a standard keyboard that will work. Otherwise the keyboard should have come with a driver disk. I have had keyboard that are defective and in that case buy a new one. To check this use one that you know is good and if that works your other keyboard is bad. Check the connection to the computer to see if it is loose. You might also look to see if the cord is damaged too. UPDATE: Try shuting down the computer then plug in the keyboard then boot the computer. Even though USB are hot swapable the keyboard may not be seen by the computer.
Xp doesnt need driver.so maybe connecting pins are broken and therez a loose contact .purchase another keyboard or get the pins fixed
