    Laptop keyboard randomly lags(?)


    As the title states the keyboard of my laptop randomly stops working and there doesn't seem to be a pattern on when this happens as well. The mouse and everything else works though. I say lag because it stops working, but when you plug in an external keyboard everything that you've been typing when it lagged just suddenly starts inputting rapidly (like when a game lags the screen freezes then when it comes back to normal everything fast forwards to the present). If the keyboard really died I don't think it should behave this way. Anyone know on why this happens and a way to fix it? I don't always bring an external keyboard with me so when it happens during that time I have no option but to restart... And yes W10 & all the drivers are updated to the latest version. No viruses/malware either from scans.

    :)

  3. Keyboard input lag (Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, Windows 10 20H2)

    Hi there. I've got yet another Windows 10 problem. lol

    This time it's my keyboard. I'm using a Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, on Windows 10 Pro 20H2. I have been experiencing keyboard input lag off and on for a couple months now, and I've searched for possible solutions, but none so far have worked. I was hoping you guys could suggest some fixes.

    Here's what I've tried, based on the suggestions I've found on the web:
    • Updating the keyboard/dongle's drivers (there are no drivers on Logitechs's site, oddly) and firmware. Nope.
    • Swapping USB ports. Nada.
    • Unplugging any extraneous USB devices. Zilch.
    • Checking the batteries. No joy.

    As I was typing this it was lagging here and there. It's a bit disconcerting. Anyway... I don't think I missed anything, but if you need more information or diagnostics, lemme know and I'll upload 'em.

    Laptop randomly lags

    As mentioned in the title, my 2 year old laptop has started to lag randomly, and it does not revert back to normal by itself. A few weeks ago this happened too but it was easily fixed by doing a forced restart. But now, even with a forced restart, it starts
    lagging, even on startup.

    My performance settings are on best performance. I tried clean boot, it's still lagging upon startup. Any solutions would be appreciated.
