I've got a PowerBook G4 that I sometimes use a wireless MighytMouse and wireless Apple keyboard with, but I'd like to see if I can get those working with a regular PC/XP machine I've got.
Is it possible that I can use them on regular XP with the Boot Camp drivers that I've read allow people to use them on XP Boot Camp setups? If so, how can I go about just getting those drivers on a CD?
Thanks.

Your G4 is a PPC machine, and does not support bootcamp or windows drivers. Basically no. I don't know about the drivers from an intel machine though.

Having said that, your mouse and keyboard should work out of the box on XP.

I'm not trying to use them on the PowerBook, just on a regular XP machine (a PC). I'm just wondering if Boot Camp XP drivers work on regular XP.

I don't think you need special drivers. Have you tried just plugging them in?

Actually, so far you're right at least for the mouse. I used a passkey of 000 and it's working great. However, keyboard won't get past the passcode part.
Thanks a lot...
