Apple Keyboard, just bought one for PC

Is there any applications out there that allow useage of the shortcuts such as the volume control etc?

Also when you boot your PC with this keyboard attached the post section crashes. Any known issues?

use bootcamp it include the apple keyboard driver to get the shortcuts working.

but delete the modem, IR, sound and bluebooth...expect bootcamp, keyboard & software update from the folder.

or use Input Remapper http://www.olofsson.info
define your keys...which i'm using it right now and all shortcuts works..

I have a couple of Mac keyboards on PCs and haven't had crashing issues. I've got the latest aluminium style one and the previous style.

The only thing I can possibly guess at is something in the BIOS such as "enable legacy support" or similar wording for USB keyboards so that they work before Windows boots.
