Enabling Multimedia Keyboard keys...?
I just bought a Dell Multimedia BT Keyboard. I paired it with my X51 and it works BEAUTIFULLY! I never dreamed it could be this good after my experiances with my IR keyboard.

BUT, only the A-Z and # keys work (well that whole set, spacebar, control, etc) the number pad does nto work and neither do any of the launcher buttons, or the multimedia control (play/pause, stop, next track, previous track, mute, volume knob, and 'launch media player' buttons).

Is there a way to map these buttons to the appropriate X51v functions/programs or do I just have a lot of extra useless buttons on my keyboard?

I'm no expert, but I think you would need specific drivers to get the special keys to work. You were able to pair your keyboard using the built-in HID profile which probably only allows basic functions.

The Keyboard need to install the appropiate drivers, found this in the Dell's website.

Ashton, do you have this keyboard? You mentioned the multimedia keyboard, not the executive keyboard.
