Wireless keyboard stopped working

Hi All
My Microsoft wireless keyboard has stopped working.

No idea if I've 'turned something off' as there is still a green light illuminated initially, but other than that, it don't click!

Is it fixable or buy another one time?

Thanks in advance!

    a) Check the batteries

    b) Check it is linked to the receiver (Should be a 'connect' button on the bottom of keyboardand on receiver. Press the one on receiver followed by the one on keyboard. Wait about 15 seconds for it to connect)
    How do I add a signature?

    @vansboy ... I joined the forum so I could answer your question ... I have the same problem. It seems that something in the last batch of Windows updates broke your keyboard. There is stuff out there relating to the problem but you have to be quite specific with Google to find it - I had several false starts. I predict it will become a big issue in the next few days once people manage to get a good old-fashioned wired keyboard installed so they can actually post about it ;-)
