    It's the wired optical hotswap keyboard and got it a few days ago from amazon, i notice it keeps switching to shortcuts or something? like h is for history and d is for downloads, i can't type anything. tried fn and enter, space bar, j, u, q, w, and ctrl both and it wouldn't change. restarting my laptop works, but when i got to plug it into my xbox series s it goes back? so frustrating and can't even talk to someone about this problem. also can't type on my laptop keyboard when this happens.

    :)

  2. Pc won't turn on when keyboard is plugged in

    Hi Jardemon,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I'm Hahn and I'm here to help you with your concern.

    It seems like the issue is related to the interaction between your laptop and the GK61 keyboard from HK Gaming. There could be various reasons for this problem, including hardware or software issues. Here are some steps you can take to troubleshoot and potentially resolve the problem:



    1. Check for physical issues:

    - Ensure that the keyboard's USB cable is not damaged or bent.

    - Try connecting the GK61 keyboard to another USB port on your laptop and see if the issue persists.

    - Test the GK61 keyboard on another computer to see if it causes similar problems.



    2. Update drivers and firmware:

    - Visit the Acer support website and make sure you have the latest BIOS and chipset drivers installed for your laptop model.

    - Check the HK Gaming website for any firmware or driver updates for the GK61 keyboard.

    3. Check for conflicting software/services:

    - Uninstall any keyboard-related software that you might have installed for the GK61 keyboard.

    - A "clean boot" starts Windows with a minimal set of drivers and startup programs, so that you can determine whether a background program is interfering with your game or program. How to perform a clean boot in Windows - Microsoft Support

    4. Test the laptop with a different keyboard:

    - If possible, try using a different keyboard (preferably a different brand/model) with your laptop and see if it causes the same problem. This will help determine if the issue is specific to the GK61 keyboard or a more general problem with the laptop.

    5. Malware scan:

    - While it's less likely to be caused by malware, it's still good to rule it out. Perform a full system scan using Windows Defender.

    6. Update your laptop's BIOS/firmware to the latest version. Outdated firmware can cause USB compatibility problems.

    If you've gone through these troubleshooting steps and the issue still persists, it might be best to contact Acer supportfrom a professional technician who can further diagnose and resolve the problem with your laptop and keyboard.

    If there is anything not clear, please do not hesitate to let me know.



    Your Sincerely
