Many thanks; would never have figure it out either. my usb midi now
functioning also.
I was apprehensive about modifying the registry directly. I know enough
to find and modify registry. I don't know enough details about the
registry to be sure I was doing the right thing. Indeed I accidently
disabled my typing keyboard (as opposed to MIDI keyboard) by mistake by
deleting the first LowerFilter I came to using the search facility.
Advice:
There may be many registry entries with the HEX name wotsit:
4D36E96C-E325-11CE-BFC1-08002BE1031.
You need the one that refers to game controllers and sound. Do not
delete lowerfilters anywhere else.
You only need to delete one lower filter. Leave the uppers alone; I
didn't have to delete any of them to make it work.
To be safe:
i) Create a system restore checkpoint under
start->programs->accessories->system Tools-> system restore
ii) If you screw up and delete the wrong lower filter so that your
keyboard stops functioning or worse you can then do a system restore
after wards (providing you don't delete the mouse lower filter). If you
delete the mouse lower filter AND the keyboard lower filter then
apparently you have to do a CMOS reset. Don't take my word for that....
use the net on someone elses computer to find the solution...
You've been warned!
Have fun
