  1. Keyboard & Mouse Input can randomly stop after an unplug / replug


    After unplugging the keyboard or mouse and plugging back in, Windows can sometimes stop taking inputs from that device.The device is still working, it is receiving 5V power, its management software can still change the RGB and device settings, so it is communicating with Windows just fine, but Windows refuses to act on any key presses or mouse movement.Booting into Ubunutu Linux does not exhibit the same issue, so it's not the hardware PC or Peripherals.What on earth could it be? A windows service that handles control input freezing?Any further debugging steps I could do? The device manager

  2. Mouse and keyboard stop working until shutdown

    Hello everyone, this problem had started for me only about 1 or 2 weeks ago, and is rather annoying. What happens is that randomly while using the mouse, it would freeze up and I would hear the "Device Disconnect" sound, and a second later the mouse would work again. This happens absolutely randomly, and after a bunch of times, both the keyboard and the mouse completely stops working. They are both connected to the USB ports on the motherboard at the back of the computer, and unplugging and replugging does not make them work again. The only solution to get the mouse and keyboard working again [temporarily], is to restart the PC using the main power button. When they stop working, the numlock light is still lit on the keyboard, but the keyboard does not respond, and I have a small indicator light on my laser mouse that just starts blinking, when it normally has never done that. Everything else is still working, such as any music playing, and the internet. And that is why I am posting, so that perhaps someone could find a solution.

    Keyboard & Mouse Input can randomly stop after an unplug / replug

    Pro Intellimouse randomly stops functioning unless replugged

    Note sure about which category this belongs in.

    The Pro Intellimouse I received recently sometimes randomly stops functioning.

    When it stops functioning, I cannot:

    - move the mouse cursor

    - use the left or right buttons

    When it stops functioning

    - Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center still detects the mouse and the settings (such as tailight) can still be changed

    - there is still a dim red light within the sensor

    I have already

    - rebooted multiple times

    Workarounds

    - replug the mouse

    Is there any way that this issue can be solved?

    OS: Windows 10 1903

    Computer: Lenovo Thinkpad T470
