Need drivers for 5187 hp keyboard for win 7

It could be the "adapter", read this The pros and cons of PS 2 to USB adapters and converters

If you really, really like this keyboard you could always install one of these 2 Port USB 2 0 2 Port PS 2 Combo to PCI Adapter Converter Card NEC Chipset

Personally, I don't see the sense this is a old keyboard and HP didn't even release Windows 7 drivers for it, forget about Windows 10. This means that none of the special function keys or media control will work.

The crescent key is for the computer to go night night!
Look under power settings in control panel this could be a key that can be reprogrammed. Usually out of the box it will but the computer into sleep mode.

For some key boarda the "Fn" key and crescent both need to be depressed.

Shaking the mouse or hitting space bar will wake up the computer.

Hope this helps?

According to HP, you don't need to download drivers from HP for this product for Win 7. Just use the Add Printer wizard function of Win 7 to go to the Microsoft Update site and get the driver from there. Follow the directions in this link:

HP LaserJet Driver support included in Windows 7 or in Windows Update

The ONLY place I've found the correct drivers of the "Easy Access Keys" on the Model KB-0133 Compaq/HP keyboard which was made for Windows 98SE, is over at this site. I WARN YOU STRONGLY TO WATCH WHAT YOU AGREE TO ON INSTALL! After that, it will install the HP SP22XXXX service package with the drivers. The options afterward are in the control panel under... you guessed it, "Easy Access Keys"

The brightness keys on laptops are interpreted by either the laptop hardware, or more likely, the operating system.
I would recommend going to HP's support site, http://support.hp.com, and downloading the latest chipset drivers from the site.
If you are running Windows 7 than try the Vista drivers if Win 7 is not listed as an operating system.

Sometimes keyboards are a pill. Just unplug it and plug it back in. Keep this up until it works.

WE STOPPED USING ps2 DEVICE IN THE LAST CENTURY
Why are you using this? now, in 2017
did you know, (can prove it) that some PCs cant even send enough power to many PS2 devices,
that is because it is NOT THERE device.

solved, buy USB devices.
and end any usage of XP now. for ever.
and win.

Visit HP's support page for your keyboard, download the hotkey software / drivers. If you don't see Win 7 stuff don't worry Vista drivers usually work ;)

Go to the official website of thehardware manufacturer and look for the drivers. These drivers are generallyfree of cost.

instead finding printer driver, you should install first all the drivers of PC/Laptop. By entering some data about your PC/Laptop you can find your driver here: http://welcome.hp.com/country/us/en/support.html?pageDisplay=drivers

Please install the correct driver of your PC/Laptop to optimize its performance.
