  2. Windows 10 Keyboard and Mouse not working

    Hi,

    There's a possibility to by-pass the error message "System restore did not complete successfully through safe mode. However, since you cannot access safe mode, we suggest that you run the System File Checker tool and DISM through command prompt in Windows
    Recovery Environment. Here are the steps on how to do so:

    • Use your USB to boot into Windows Recovery Environment, then click on Advanced options.
    • Choose Command Prompt, then copy and paste these commands one-by-one.

      DISM.exe /Online /Cleanup-image /Restorehealth

      sfc /scannow
    • Once done, close the Windows Recovery Environment or continue to boot your computer.

    Let us know if the mouse and keyboard worked after.

    Mouse/Keyboard work in BIOS, they do not work once computer boots

    I have been using computers for over 25 years now, and I have never run across a problem like this. Backstory: I built my current PC about a year ago. Everything worked perfectly until about 5 days ago. At that point, it needed to restart. I restarted it, and upon boot neither the mouse or keyboard would respond. I tried a different mouse and keyboard, they did not work either. I tried both of the mice and keyboards with another PC, and they worked fine. This absolutely rules out the problem being the inputs.Then, I noticed that the mouse and keyboard do work in BIOS. However, after exiting BIOS and booting, they stop responding altogether. I have gone into system recovery countless times and tried literally every recovery option listed, to no avail. Any suggestions to help would be GREATLY appreciated. For the past 5 days I have literally had a $3000 paperweight.
