Hi All,

So I recently converted my work laptop to a VHD VM with Hyper V as my personal laptop is more powerful than works laptop, and I only use it for 1 thing.

So while the VHD conversion and booting worked perfectly fine I have a missing driver for my keyboard and mouse, the mouse is the least of my issues as mouse passthrough seems to be working.

But the keyboard is not seen at all and passing through does not work at all, the driver is "Standard 101/102-Key or Microsoft Natural PS/2 Keyboard for HP Hotkey Support", I have downloaded a hotkey from HP that seems to match this but it fails to install (x64 installer against x64 machine) 

Any suggestions the hardware/software IDs don't point to any reputable websites.

 

Thanks

there should be built in drivers in hyper-v, you should consider VMware or VirtualBox though as they are far better.

I had a massive amount of issues with VMware when it was a vdmk file hence why I moved to hyper v

I can but I have to use the on screen keyboard which is annoying AF 

I don't expect I would have this problem with a fresh build but we use a special windows build and I can't find the iso on our servers to rebuild it hence the conversion
