Windows 10: [Win10] DirectX input does not always boot

This is a weird one.

So as far as I know, occasionally direct input will just not boot. Any games that require it will either not run at all, or prompt an error message.

Direct X diagnostic itself also fails in regards to the input.


Here's the strange bit. 99% of the time I have yet to see this fail I can either reboot or log out/in, and it will work like nothing happened.

I have never had to dive into direct X before 10, so It's kind of shocking that I can't find an easy way to troubleshoot it.


I'm sure I can provide whatever information you need on request, but I don't currently know which information would help, only that it all points to Direct input being the culprit.

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
