Can a dell computer work with an other brand of keyboard?

Well I have a Dell computer and I broke the keyboard, and I want to get another one but I heard people saying that dell computers only respond to dell keyboards .. is that true or what? Please help !Can a dell computer work with an other brand of keyboard?Yes, it does not matter what brand you plug into your Dell computer.



One of very, very few exceptions is if you have a unique keyboard, usually designed for gamers or drafters that have lots of specialized shortcut keys, but normally there are proper drivers for most PCs.Can a dell computer work with an other brand of keyboard?

Yes of course! Any keyboard with any computer!
False - but just make sure you get a USB keyboard - it will be more useful to you as most also have additional ports
Yes.
I don't think it should be a problem! I have an acer and am currently using a mac keyboard. I haven't had an problems with it. Also my mom has an HP laptop and has used my keyboard, again she had no problem.





Hope this helps! =)
For the normal keys and function keys, any USB or PS/2 keyboard will do. However, some Dell (and other manufacturers) keyboards have special, non-standard keys for things like volume levels, start/stop an audio CD or media player, launch a web browser, etc. A special application or control panel written by Dell (or for Dell) interprets those keys and performs the appropriate function. If your current keyboard has such keys, a new keyboard may or may not have them. If it has similar keys, you would likely need to use the software supplied with that keyboard to access those keys. Any Dell-supplied application for handling the special keys may or may not work with a different keyboard.



As a side note, I'm using a Dell-branded keyboard (actually made by Microsoft and OEMed by Dell) on a desktop I built myself. It has one button labeled "Dell Support" and another labeled "Dell.com." Since I don't have the special keyboard software from Dell, the Dell Support button brings up the Calcuator and the Dell.com button brings up My Computer (as those buttons do on the regular non-Dell branded versions of the same Microsoft keyboard).
