How do I get a Northgate OmniKey working with Windows 7?

I love this Northgate OmniKey Ultra Keyboard. Does anyone know how to get it to work in Windows 7? I also have an Avant Stellar with the same problem.

Thanks,

Ken

what type of plug are you using. with some older keyboards it is sometimes helpful to get an adapter so that you can plug it into a newer type port such as the usb.

Yes what kind of plug does it have? If its round and have a cover with the color purple or green, then its a old PS/2 port which I believe a lot of desktops do not support anymore. You would have to get an adapter for PS/2 to USB for it to connect. You can generally found those at like Amazon.
