Adding to J W Stuarts response, you may refer to the following article and follow the suggestions and check if the Keyboard works. Hope this information is helpful. If the keyboard doesn't work on any computer, the small interface board inside the keyboard has stopped working. As the keyboards are not designed to be fixed, no spares available, you have to follow this process..
Jo AnnAaronson. The keyboard just stopped working. The mouse works. I put new batteries in the keyboard, but still nothing. Any suggestions? This thread is locked.

In reply to J W Stuart's post on June 6, I downloaded the latest driver as you suggested, and restarted my computer.
Unfortunately, that did not work. In reply to Jo AnnAaronson's post on June 6, The design of the keyboard in the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Desktop is essentially the same as the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard , though the former connects to your computer wirelessly via a USB receiver.
The split design rises in the middle to keep your wrists and arms in a naturally rotated position. An optional riser snaps under the front of the keyboard to create a backward slant that prevents you from flexing your wrists. You can further adjust the keyboard's height and angle via snap-up feet on the rear corners.
The keyboard's wrist rest is padded with a faux-leather cover that's preferable to bare plastic but nevertheless not as comfortable as the gel wrist rests you can get elsewhere. All these features add up to a rather comfortable typing experience; after just a few days with the Natural Ergonomic Keyboard we came to prefer it to traditional keyboards for all our typing. However, we were frustrated by the stiffness of the keys, especially the space bar.
Even after prolonged use we felt we had to press just a bit too hard to type--not exactly ideal for a keyboard that's supposed to reduce repetitive stress injuries and certainly a deal breaker for anyone whose hand and wrist pain starts in their fingers. The keyboard also incorporates a number of features designed to cut down on mousing.
A row of silver buttons at the top of the board comes preprogrammed to do things such as launch your default Web browser or e-mail client, control media playback, and open the desktop calculator. Five additional numbered buttons can be programmed via the included IntelliType Pro software to launch any software or open a file of your choice.
In case you forget what you've assigned to each button, the My Favorites button in the middle of the board calls up a window that shows you. In the area between the split keys resides a two-way toggle that lets you zoom in and out of the active page. Below the spacebar and between the wrist pads are two buttons--back and forward--that allow you to move between Web pages without having to reach for your mouse.
Not that mousing is all that painful with the Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Desktop In fact, though wrist pain forced us to start mousing with our left hand years ago, we found ourselves eschewing our own Logitech MX left-handed mouse in favor of the right-handed Microsoft Natural Ergonomic mouse.
Though we'd still prefer to have a left-handed version, which Microsoft sadly lacks. The elevated mouse looks more like a piece of fruit than a computer accessory, and its buttons, wheel, and palm rest all veer toward the right side. The idea behind the design is that it turns your wrist upward almost, though not quite, like a handshake and lets you rest your hand on the right side instead of putting pressure on the carpal tunnel area.
