Windows 10: Wireless USB keyboard bypass?

Basically, the subject is the question: can I bypass the wireless USB dongle and connect a wireless keyboard directly to my PC using a USB-to-whatever variant port the keyboard itself comes standardport? I prefer wired keyboards and my aging Microsoft Digital Media Keyboard 3000 has torn through the A and E key silicon membrane example image below. They now stay stuck in the depressed position and no longer come back up, occasionally simply repeating the same key during keystrokes. A becomes aaaaaa, and e becomes eeeeee. I cannot seem to find a silicone interface replacement, not that I ev

Keyboard input lag (Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, Windows 10 20H2)

Hi there. I've got yet another Windows 10 problem. lol

This time it's my keyboard. I'm using a Logitech K270 wireless keyboard, on Windows 10 Pro 20H2. I have been experiencing keyboard input lag off and on for a couple months now, and I've searched for possible solutions, but none so far have worked. I was hoping you guys could suggest some fixes.

Here's what I've tried, based on the suggestions I've found on the web:

• Updating the keyboard/dongle's drivers (there are no drivers on Logitechs's site, oddly) and firmware. Nope.
• Swapping USB ports. Nada.
• Unplugging any extraneous USB devices. Zilch.
• Checking the batteries. No joy.

As I was typing this it was lagging here and there. It's a bit disconcerting. Anyway... I don't think I missed anything, but if you need more information or diagnostics, lemme know and I'll upload 'em.

 

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.

 

logitek wireless keyboard problems

An hour ago, my logitek wireless keyboard MK320 began making errors. For example, I hit the 'u' key and '4u' appears. I hit 'e' and my firefox browser opens. I've rebooted, unplugged and plugged in the USB wireless, checked that I'm using a US Keyboard. Nothing changes. Any suggestions?
