    Keyboard only works AFTER logon


    It has to be some service that is started too late. I have to use the onscreen keyboard to type in my password. After that, everything works fine.

    Windows fully up to date. Build 19041.450
    Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600.
    Device Manager says no problems.

    :)
