I searched for this application here and I couldn't find it.

My situation was the following, I got an Apple Wireless Keyboard and I wanted to use it with my PC at work. So I set it up but I came across the following issue.

Unable to log in: Control + ALT + DEL didn't work so I couldn't log in to windows or use it properly. Overall all the keys were messed, I tried a lot of applications and some supposed Apple drivers that did nothing.

I came accross this application:

Unofficial Apple Wireless Keyboard Support (UAWKS)

http://code.google.com/p/uawks/

Which ads functionality to the keyboard and now I can use it and it feels as if I was in my macbook at home. I can use Commant T / W and all those commands to browse in firefox and stuff as if I were on my mac.

Now Command + L Even logs me off.

And the media keys function properly, at least the volume, haven't tested the playback control.

I installed it to my bootcamp installation and now the keyboard works equally as good. It is a nice application and I think deserves more attention.

It took me a while to get to it when I was trying to get the keyboard to work, I found other solutions but were too complicated, this was the most easy one and might help some other people. Be sure to check the webpage for more information on its features and updates.

Good Luck
