Try windows update with the thing plugged in, sometimes this will actually find and install the driver needed. Though why it didn't already have the driver needed is kinda odd.
Is the keyboard native PS/2 or USB? PS/2 keyboards (and maybe other stuff too) sometimes (or often) will not work if you plug them in after the comp is on already. Pictures of the DT-35 shown that its USB but just to be safe, plug it in before turning on the comp if you haven't already done so.

Will post more if I can think of anything else.

From what I've read the dt-35 also has a PS/2 connector, try using the PS/2 port on your laptop(if there is one) and if there isn't maybe you'd want to buy a usb to ps/2 adapter. (I honestly would just try this as a last resort, unless you're able to return it if it doesn't work.)

I have a Samsung DT-35. There are no drivers for it. Mine is PS2, and I don't know if a USB version exists.

v[1.8]c is right, you have to connect the keyboard when the computer is off. I had forgotten that fact, and when I went to a LAN a few days ago, I plugged the my DT-35 into a running computer and it didn't work. So I rebooted the machine and presto!

You should avoid connecting PS2 devices when the machine is powered, it is possible (though it is not likley) that you can damage the PS2 port on the PC by connecting a device to it when it is powered.

never heard that but, my computers at home (which I constantly move from living room to my room because big screen TV there). I always make the mistake of turning it on before everything is connected and either the mouse, keyboard, or video won't work if the computer is already started.
Make sure everything is plugged in before you boot, it won't work if you don't.

sorry for the bump, but I just bought this keyboard and I am having difficulties getting the computer to read it. I've tried PS2/few USB ports but it's not being recognized by the computer =[

pretty sure they sent me a defective keyboard =/

I got mine a few days ago and I don't have any problems. PS/2 and I'm using it in a Pentium 3, 1 Ghz laptop.

ALL make sure you plug it in (also try different PS2 ports, if there are any, which is not likely anyways), BEFORE you start ur PC/Laptop.

USB not needed.

plug PS/2 in the machine BEFORE starting it (try even before giving it power)
