I tried installing the latest Microsoft IntelliPoint/Type drivers and none of them can complete the installation.
To be able to get them to install at all I changed the compatibility to XP SP2.
The installation is tehn able to get to the point where you are asked to select which model mouse/keyboard you are installing but the required list is not displayed, and you can't get any further without making the choice. There is a window with this text: "Important: The product name is specified on the bottom of the Microsoft mouse." had the same experiance with attempting to install IntelliPoint/Type 5.1 to 5.5.
I found a suggestion on a TechNet forum that IntelliPoint/Type version 5.0 installers work with Vista. I tried the older IntelliPoint/Type 5.0 installers. I also needed to change the compatibility to XP SP2 but they did give me the needed list and they have installed without problems and work fine now.
