Microsoft IntelliType is the brand driver for Microsoft's series of computer keyboards. Microsoft releases versions for both Windows and Mac OS X (as of version 10.15 Microsoft IntelliType no longer installs on Mac OS X). It has been succeeded by Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center, which combines IntelliType with IntelliPoint.
IntelliType supports all known Microsoft keyboards (including those that are shipped as parts of desktop sets, as well as entertainment keyboards – i.e. those that are intended for Media center). However, advanced features may only be available on certain models (the users select their keyboard's type inside the program to access that keyboard type's specific button selection).
Supported keyboards[edit]
Note: Version 8.0 and above dropped PS/2 support for the following list. As even adapters can't assist,[clarification needed] Microsoft keeps version 7.1 as an offered download for users who still own keyboards with PS/2 connectors (instead of USB).[1]

Special features[edit]
Microsoft Intellipoint Software
If the keyboard has multimedia buttons, the user can define them to run any program or action.
On-screen indication of NumLock/CapsLock toggling with some keyboards.
On-screen indication of volume level when level is changed.
Limitations[edit]
While the user could always define special keys (and multimedia keys, if such exist), it was only possible since version 6.3 to define them not just globally but also per application.
Version 6.2 forced the user to constantly check for updates by installing and launching the file 'dpupdchk.exe' in the background. It must stay in the background for the control panel's settings to launch (although it could be avoided by renaming the file to something else). Version 6.3 fixed this behavior by only making it an opt-in option during the installation.
Version 7.0 and later in Windows 7 64-bit has recently been proven to disable the media keys (Play/Pause, Next, Previous, Stop) for third-party media players such as iTunes and Media Jukebox when they are not the primary window of focus.[6] Some workaround exists:[7] This behavior continues to be an issue as of Version 8.

Please read and print all installation notes and known issues for important details before beginning any software installation.
If you have a desktop set (keyboard and mouse set), you will need to install the keyboard software (IntelliType Pro) and the mouse software (IntelliPoint) in separate installation processes.
When selecting your mouse device during Setup for beta software installation, note that the Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 and Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 devices are missing from the device selection list. Select any other mouse device to proceed. After installation, select your device by doing the following:
Open Control Panel Home and click Hardware and Sound.
Click Mouse for the Mouse Properties and select either Wireless Laser Mouse 8000 or Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 from the device list. Selecting the correct device will ensure that you have all features and complete functionality.
Your Microsoft keyboard and mouse will work with basic functionality when running Windows Vista� prior to installing the IntelliType Pro and IntelliPoint software.
Connect your keyboard and mouse to the computer that is running Windows Vista to navigate through the IntelliType Pro and IntelliPoint setup processes.
Known Issues
Microsoft is aware of the following current issues for Windows Vista and is working to resolve them.
During Setup, the title bar refers to the incorrect version (appears as version 6.0 but it should be 6.1). This presents no issue for use or installation.
The Magnify feature does not support Microsoft Windows Aero but will work when Windows Aero is turned off.
During Setup, your device may not be found in the device list; choose another device from the list to proceed. After installation, you can open Control Panel to select any missing device from the complete device list.
If you have the Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000, open Control Panel and select Wireless Notebook Presenter Mouse 8000 to ensure functionality.
When using the latest Microsoft wireless keyboard or mouse receivers such as 27 MHz wireless technology, and not Bluetooth� wireless technology, the screen saver will not be automatically activated. This primarily applies to the Microsoft Windows Vista Premium and Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate editions.
Bluetooth First Connect wireless technology will not function when running Windows Vista.
Some software features, such as keyboard Hot Keys and advanced mouse functionality, are not supported and may not work with applications running at elevated privileges.
Some applications that previously supported horizontal scrolling may not work.
It is highly recommended to always use the most recent driver version available.
Try to set a system restore point before installing a device driver. This will help if you installed an incorrect or mismatched driver. Problems can arise when your hardware device is too old or not supported any longer.
