QuestionWill the keyboard work with a computer running DOS 6.22?
Asked 9 months ago by Anonymous.
- Answer Thank you for your inquiry! Unfortunately, the Best Buy essentials™ Full-size Wired Membrane USB Keyboard won't work with a computer running DOS 6.22. DOS 6.22 doesn't support USB keyboards directly2. You would need a keyboard with a PS/2 connector or an older type of keyboard that is compatible with DOS. If you have any other questions or need further assistance, feel free to ask! - Mae | BestBuy Essential Support

QuestionIs there a way to simulate the 'fn' and 'command' keys for mac. And do the "ctrl" and "alt" keys provide the same functions as on a mac? Is there a "driver" to provide these functions? Thanks.
Asked 1 year ago by steve.
- Answer Hi Steve! Yes, there are ways to simulate the 'fn' and 'command' keys on a PC keyboard for Mac. For example, you can use software applications like Karabiner-Elements or Keyboard Maestro to customize the keys on your PC keyboard to function like a Mac keyboard. There may not be a specific driver to provide these functions, but the software mentioned above can help you achieve the desired key mappings.
