Windows 10: Mouse and keyboard input are slow to respond.

Hello,
I've been having this issue since the last Windows 10 update, When I first power on the computer the mouse and keyboard are slow to respond as if there is lag between them and the computer. Also the HDD activity light is going nuts. When I restart the computer everything goes back to normal. I've disabled all 3rd party start up services and programs, and this did not seem to help. Any thoughts? I'm at the point where I am ready to do a fresh install of Windows 7 as I have that CD and the Windows 10 was the free upgrade.

Thanks
Jeff

Lock screen doesn't respond to keyboard following Nov. update

Lock screen stopped responding to keyboard input following installation of Windows 10 November update. The lock screen responds to mouse click, but not keyboard input. I'm using a wired Microsoft Natural keyboard (KU-0045).

 

Mouse and keyboard intermittently don't work on Windows 10.

While I am using Windows 10, every few minutes Windows does not responds to keyboard or mouse input for a few seconds or periods as long as 30 seconds.

I have this problem using any software while using any combination of the following hardware:

1. HP desktop, Dell desktop, MS Surface Pro 4

2. Wired Microsoft mouse, wired Dell mouse, wireless Logitech mouse, wireless Logitech trackball, Bluetooth Microsoft mouse, Bluetooth Kensington mouse.

3. Wired Dell keyboard, wired HP keyboard, wireless Logitech keyboard, Bluetooth Kensignton keyboard.

The problem occurs every few minutes with every hardware combination I've tried. The computer does not respond to either mouse or keyboard input for a few seconds or up to about 30 seconds.

I'm pretty sure this is a fundamental software problem with Windows 10. It happens on too many different hardware configurations to believe it is a hardware problem. It's not merely a problem related to having one or two bad drivers.

 

What are your system spec's? What is the mfg and model of the keyboard and mouse?

 

Amd 6-core 3.8 ghz processor, 8gb ram, microsoft wireless keyboard 800, and a Logitec M570 trackball, now the problem is starting up randomly while the computer runs.

 

Have you tried uninstalling the drivers for the keyboard and mouse, along with telling Device Manager to uninstall the hardware, then reboot and let it install the default drivers.

Also to let you know for future reference. When you are asked for system spec's. We need Motherboard mfg and model if it was built by or for you. If OEM it is just mfg and model ofthe box.
