So I received this Cyborg gaming keyboard and gaming mouse as gifts from the missus. Sick looking things. The mouse works fine, but I'm having a hard time installing the keyboard driver. I installed the software but the driver is where I'm stuck.

I run the setup file, and it asks me to plug in the device (keyboard). I plug in the USB, and after a few seconds, a pop-up on the bottom right says that the device was not properly installed. I tried the driver on the CD, as well as the driver on their website. The dialog box still stays there asking me to plug in the device. Running Win7 with which it is compatible. It's just not installing, but it lights up once it's plugged in though. I submitted a ticket on their website but still no reply after 2 days. Any ideas?

Then go into component list, pick the keyboard, pull the properties for the keyboard, there should be an option to install a driver. Life is short and dinner time is chancy Eat dessert first!

3 simple steps on solving b0rked stuff in windows:

step 1 - if it doesn't work, reboot. if solved, yay! if not, go to step 2:
step 2 - if reboot doesn't work, go to support website. if solved, yay! if not, go to step 3:
step 3 - if support doesn't work, reformat. if solved, yay! if not, then you're ******.
