  1. Second Keyboard


    Is it possible to connect 2 normal keyboards to a Windows PC, such that it can be configured to have different input for the same key from different keyboard?An example would be CTRL-C is "COPY" for one keyboard input but "PASTE" for another keyboard.

    :)

  2. Keyboard problem in Windows 10

    Hi David,

    Thank you for posting your query in Microsoft Community.

    I suggest you to check if the issue persists when you connect another keyboard to your system.

    If the issue is with the keyboard, then suggest you to update the keyboard drivers by following the steps below.


    • Press Windows key + X and select
      Device Manager
      from the list.

    • Expand ‘Keyboard’ from the list.

    • Right click on the driver and select ‘update driver software’ and follow the prompts.

    Hope the information is helpful.
