I get some error message when i go to the zbaord website. and i am running winxp home version, everything is updated, the WoTLK keyset works fine as a regular keyboard but the special keys wont work at all.

    Same problem, cant get special buttons to work and can't get on the website.

  • Demtar2 Dec 28, 2008

    this might be a possible solution for some of us
    go to this website, select your zboard from the menu, select your language,English is listed as USA --it says language but its more like country, there are two options next-either 32 bit or 64 bit
    its a big file, about 52 MB

Zboard

I had the same problems as you and found this answer on blizzard forums.



First, the disc that comes with your ZBoard is now too old to use. The drivers on the disc were made by Ideazon before Steelseries took over, whereas the WotLK keyset was made afterwards. Steelseries seem to have completely reworked the drivers in the interim.

How to Fix
Step 1. Uninstall your ZBoard.
Step 2. Go to http://www.steelseries.com/downloads/#keyboards and DL the Z Engine.
Step 3. Make sure your ZBoard is plugged in with the standard keyset.
Step 4. Install the new Z Engine.
Step 5. Switch to your WotLK keyset.
Step 6. Run WoW.

I used this solution last night with some success.
Most of the gamer keys now work but some still don't work correctly such as, all the chat buttons default to say.
Hope this helps

ZBoard setup for WoW keyset not working.

go to

www.steelseries.com/downloads

select the USB zboard keyboard and download the relevant patch/software

I have done this, and my WoW ZBoard and all the special functions buttons work

The problem is, ideazon was bought out by steelseries, but this information was no included when you bought the board.
