HIDSYS.EXE for Windows 2000

[Guest]

I just bought Keyspan presentation remote device. I will be using it for my
Power Point presentations. The Hardware Wizard came up when I put the
receiver in my USB port. It say it is looking for the hidsys.exe file, and
asks me to load it from my Windows 2000 CD. I do not have the CD.

Is there a way I can download this file to my Windows 2000?

Thanks,

Steve

Try extracting from the service pack files. To extract without installing
them, execute
J:\W2kSP4\W2KSP4_EN.exe /x
Then when prompted, specify a directory to hold the extracted files.

AFAIK and FWIW there is no such file in W2K, SP4 or otherwise.

Yes, I didn't bother extracting and looking. Was just an idea. The OP
probably needs to ask the hardware vendor for the driver. Possibly here.
