called Microsoft Input Devices. Manually create a program item for

%SYSTEMROOT%\TASKSW32.EXE.
-or-
- Manually create programs items for \MSINPUT\KEYBOARD\KBDX32.EXE and
%SYSTEMROOT%\TASKSW32.EXE in an existing program group.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in IntelliType version 1.0. We
are researching this problem and will post new information here in the
