Windows 10: Wireless keyboard: extemely slow response

For 2 years my wireless keyboards functioned perfectly; then some months ago they started malfunctioning. At first, the response became very, very slow; then they didn't seem to function at all anymore, but I recently discovered they can take up to 5 minutes to start doing something. Sometimes they even function normally after that time but mostly they do not.I blame some windows update, for several reasons: I use 2 of them, with dongles on 2 USB-ports; both gave trouble at the same time. Also, they both function perfectly well on another laptop.On forums I saw I am not the only one wi

Need a new wireless keyboard - suggestions?

This is a for work - not gaming!

My work keyboard is a wireless logitech, lasted some 6 years and now has a case of sticking keys, so I need a new one. I really liked it, thought the key action isn't the greatest. It has been through millions of keystrokes.

I have a G5 gaming mouse (both work and home), I want to keep that.

So I'm looking for:

• Wireless and responsive
• (USB and PS2 capable)
• Assignable hot keys
• Dedicated volume and playback buttons
• Great feel (for lots of typing)
• Intergrated wrist-wrest
• Black (nice not to see gunk that builds up)
• Under $100

Anyone have any "passionate" suggestions? I plan to stop at staples to try some out. I am partial to Logitech.

 

Wireless keyboard not working

Hi Arthur,

Thank you for your response.

I suggest you to connect the keyboard to a different computer and check if it works.

Apart from wireless keyboard, I would also suggest you to connect wired keyboard to the computer and check the status.

If issue still persists, try the steps provided below and check if it helps.

Check in compatibility mode.

Download the keyboard drivers from your computer manufacture website for Windows 10.

Follow these steps to install the drivers in compatibility mode and check if that helps.

• Download the driver from the manufacturer’s website.
• Right-click on the driver setup file and click on ‘properties’.
• Click on the ‘compatibility’ tab and check the box ‘Run this program in compatibility mode for’ and select Windows 8 operating system from the drop down menu and proceed
  with the installation.
• Once this is done, restart the computer and check if the issue persists.

Hope the information helps, if you have any further queries, feel free to post. We are here to assist you.
