HP Pavilion All-in-One - 24-xa0024

I lost my USB receiver for my wireless HP keyboard and mouse that came with my desktop. Is there any way to get a replacement receiver or is there another option? I love this keyboard and mouse and don't want to get rid of it.

No. Once the matching dongle is lost the WIFImouse/keyboard combo is useless except for salvaging electronic parts.

 

The problem is that the wireless keyboard/mouse combination is bonded by a radio transmission key and frequency to its dongle from the factory.

 

You will need to replace the mouse/keyboard combination. The new combination set will have a dongle that is part of the set. 

 

You could also use a wired usb  mouse and usb keyboard.
