GMan,
The mouse doesn't have any additional keys - left/right buttons, and
scroll wheel. Keyboard has several buttons along and above the function keys,
of
which I've only used the mute button. CD/DVD eject buttons, volume/mute
buttons, media controls, search/hp club/internet/info/email, and a quarter moon
shaped thing. Device manager doesn't show any yellow question marks or
esclamation
marks. Hope this helps.
Thanks,
HB
