Apple keyboard use in Win XP

I have a bluetooth Apple keyboard that I got with my iMac 20" Intel Core Duo. Everything works except the right side of the keyboard. Where the volume and eject buttons are. I tend to use the #'s on the right side then above the letters. Is there a way to get it to work? I would also like to eject my CD's using the eject button.

Also, everytime Windows boots up my bluetooth keyboard doesn't always respond. I most of the time have to switch the keyboard on and off for it to work.

Did you hit num-lock? Which version of Boot Camp are you running?

Is there a num-lock on an apple keyboard? I'm running the latest version of boot camp 1.1.2

Yeah, I guess its a recognition thing. I have no passkey set to it.

As for the eject, try reinstalling your drivers that you (Hopefully) burned.
