  1. Keyboard not working.


    Hello. I am having an issue with both of the keyboards I have. One is a Vortex Pok3r mechanical keyboard, and the other is a Corsair Strafe RGB mechanical keyboard. Just this morning everything worked completely normal, and has ever since I built this PC last year.

    I moved my setup around and when I plugged everything back in and booted up neither keyboard will respond when I get to the “enter pin” screen. They both light up during the boot, but the lights go off when I get to the enter pin screen. I used the onscreen keyboard to login to windows, and neither keyboard will work once I am in windows either.

    Windows makes the little notification sound when I unplug and plug in both keyboards. The only time I can get them to work is when I go to advanced start up and then I can press the number to choose how I want windows to boot. Neither are responsive in safe mode either.
