Yes, the driver is called Human Interface Devices. Shows up under
Devicer Manager. Pls keep in mind, this is Win98se. It installs 2
for each, keyboard and mouse. For the sound there's just an
electronic switch, since it's the analog signal that is switched by
the device.

Mabye I'll see if Amazon will take it back. The total cost after
rebate is not great, but just as a comment on bad design.
After the fact, I read some of the comments people left on Amazon.
At least one guy said that sound was horrible. Another that video
switching is bad, if you're into hi-rez.
