Windows 10: Logitech wireless keyboard intermittently is not responsive to keystrokes and the mouse...

My Logitech wireless keyboard intermittently is not responsive to keystrokes and the mouse becomes jumpy and non responsive.


I have the same set up at home that I do at work.


This issue is prevalent on both machines.


Both machines are running windows 10


Both machines are using the same Logitech Wireless Keyboard and mouse.

This keyboard and mouse set up uses a USB port plug to communicate with the keyboard and mouse.

There is no reset button on the plug or the board or the mouse.


This intermittent issue has become more pronounced in the last 4 weeks.


I have used the same mouse and keyboard setup for the last 2 years at work and the same set at home since July.


I have reinstalled the drivers. I have changed the batteries. I have rotated the USB ports.


This is an issue that appears on sites across the internet but the one feed that is on this site that references it has been locked.

Logitech wireless keyboard intermittently not responsive to keystrokes...ONLY in WORD documents.

Logitech wireless keyboard intermittently not responsive to keystrokes...ONLY in WORD documents. NO other apps affected. Regular laptop keyboard works fine all the time.

Updated win10 regularly. reinstalled drivers, receiver is close to keyboard and mouse.

Mouse is fine.

ONLY happens in WORD documents.

No other applications are affected at all, ever.

Have two other machines, one ASUS, other Lenovo...both are fine with external keyboards.

Only this machine, only in Word, only bluetooth keyboard.

Can anyone offer help? (Please).

THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING.

BLECCHH!!

 

Logitech wireless keyboard / mouse hangs

Problems

• Intermittent nature
  
• The mouse will often hang (won't move)
  
• The keyboard will often not type
  
• Sometimes, the keys get saved up and come out later all at once, and sometimes they never come out
  
• The mouse seems to have difficulty traveling to the top left of the screen.
  

Equipment

• Dell Precision M3800 Laptop
  
• Windows 10 Professional operating system
  
• Logitech wireless keyboard (K270)
  
• Logitech wireless mouse (M185). They came in the same box / use the same dongle.
  
• "Plugable USB 3.0" docking station that runs the DisplayLink software. It has two monitors attached to it, one by DVI and the other by HDMI. It's plugged into the laptop by USB.
  

Troubleshooting Steps Taken

• Wired keyboard and wired mouse work great.
  
• When wireless was plugged in, it was in a USB port on the laptop itself, not the docking station
  
• I rerouted the monitors to plug directly into the laptop (take this docking station out of the equation). So far the wireless keyboard/mouse are not malfunctioning. This seems to indicate that the docking station is a necessary component to reproduce the problem). But I have to give it 1-2 days to make sure because the problem is intermittent.
  

Question

What would be a good first choice for a fix I can try that won't hurt anything (update a driver...where?)?

 

Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard (1027) & Logitech Mouse replacement?

I have a Microsoft Wireless Comfort Keyboard (Model 1027) that originally came with a Microsoft Mouse (Model 1052). The mouse has intermittent problems (slow click response, freezing, etc.) and I would like to replace it. Can I use a Logitech Marathon
M705 mouse with this keyboard? I am not sure how to sync the Logitech mouse with the Microsoft keyboard, since it does not use the same type of "receiver" that the microsoft mouse has.
