Title: Matias laptop Pro multimedia keys not working
Post by: Bow3022 on Wed, 10 September 2014, 14:48:34

I just picked up a Laptop pro and everything works pretty well.  But I run bootcamp( windows 7) but none of the multimedia keys work. Is there a fix for this besides remapping some of the keys?

Since that keyboard was designed for the Mac, Matias would probably have to release some sort of Windows driver in order for the mutlimedia keys to work as they do in OS X. Might be worth shooting them an email about it. Otherwise, you'll have to remap them on your own.

I gave them a call. What was funny was that on their website it said the keys would work with windows if I was using bootcamp.

The tech rep, then suggested a few remapping programs I could use. (autohotkey was one of them) What do you guys suggest for a remapping program? Ive never done it before.
