If I have to replace the Zboard LI4101199A what would something like this run? My unit is 7 years old.

Hi, once a battery in such a device has run down it is usually necessary to replace it unfortunately. The various types of rechargeable batteries have different charging characteristics, the old ni-cads are better in some ways than li-ion units but they all have a fairly finite life span. They can be obtained and replaced if you can access the unit(s) .....Ebay might be able to help with replacements. Also...Radioshack in the US and Maplin in the UK may be able to assist

Check the air filter. Jump out thermostat to see if it stays running longer, if so replace thermostat. Make sure all return air ducts are clear of debris. If furnace has a Fan/Limit switch, make sure tabs are set at 100, 140 and 200. Sounds like something may be heating up and shutting unit off till it cools back down.

steelseries bought them out. steelseries.com will have the drivers(zengine) for any zboard users

Hello,

Drivers for the Zboard can be found at the following link

Select the Zboard, your require language and then either 32bit or 64 bit, depending on which you are running. The driver file will download.

You can download the driver from here: http://www.steelseries.com/download

I had the same problems as you and found this answer on blizzard forums.



First, the disc that comes with your ZBoard is now too old to use. The drivers on the disc were made by Ideazon before Steelseries took over, whereas the WotLK keyset was made afterwards. Steelseries seem to have completely reworked the drivers in the interim.

How to Fix
Step 1. Uninstall your ZBoard.
Step 2. Go to http://www.steelseries.com/downloads/#keyboards and DL the Z Engine.
Step 3. Make sure your ZBoard is plugged in with the standard keyset.
Step 4. Install the new Z Engine.
Step 5. Switch to your WotLK keyset.
Step 6. Run WoW.

I used this solution last night with some success.
Most of the gamer keys now work but some still don't work correctly such as, all the chat buttons default to say.
Hope this helps

Steelseries took over from Ideazon and Ideazone no longer exist so none of their websites work any more.

After 7 years of great service you should retire this system and replace it with a new unit.

Products made these days are not built for quality, that was back in the good old days, it's 2008, things are made to only last a short period of time.

Sorry I couldn't be more help, but I will only tell you the best solution for your problem and not waste your time running around trying to fix something that may cost you more than replacing the problem you already have.

Have a Great Day!!
