USB keyboard INF file?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me what INF and SYS file in c:\windows\inf that is
needed in order to install a USB keyboard with windows?
We have a XP Embedded image missing these files in our build.
(One of our customers now want to use a usb keyboard with our device)

I had the same problem with a USB disk device that I solved by copying
the USBSTOR.INF and USBSTOR.SYS file to our device befor install.

Can anyone help me out here? I am on vecation and dont have access to a
usb keyboard myself.

Many thanks.
Gustaf

Hi Gustaf,

That's a bit of a loaded question in XPe, but if you have USB storage
working then presumably the USB controller is all set so you'll need (this
is just a starting point your image may have other dependencies not
statisfied):

kbdhid.sys
keyboard.inf
hidparse.sys
kbdclass.sys

You will also need the Class Installer -Keyboards component and the CoDevice
Installer - Keyboards component. (Probably both already there)

HTH,
Brad
