Hello.

I've switched my computer on this evening to find that my keyboard is dead to the computer. Now, I have about five keyboards to choose from, all of which work in the BIOS, on the Xbox and MacBook, so they're all fine. However, once Windows 10 boots, the keyboard effectively dies and no input is recognised. I've cleared out all the drivers and noticed that it's saying there's an issue with my generic HID driver, but also with one that's under the name of my mouse. I've cleared the pc of ASUS software, but whatever happens, the computer won't install and work with keyboards. But, I can use my keyboards function keys with the computer to change volume, switch the track or send to sleep...

Nothing new has been installed or changed with the PC as far as I can tell. I have an update lined up though.


edit: Only things plugged in by USB are the keyboard and mouse. Without the mouse, same behaviour by the keyboard. Tried pretty much every USB I have too to rule that out.

3700X at stock
32GB DDR4 at 3000MHz
Crosshair VII Hero (WiFi) with latest BIOS that was updated last week, worked perfectly since
GTX1080
 
Could you do a system restore back to when it was working ok?

maybe check windows updates and see if anything was installed at the time the issue started and remove any updates.

Was any bios settings changed at all that could have had a impact on this or is there any driver updates for the motherboard?
 
I'll have a check if I can in the morning. I was on it about an hour before this started, so I'll double check the logs incase something has installed and I've missed it.

No BIOS settings have changed and no driver stuff that I know of.
 
Got impatient. System restore to yesterday morning has me back up and running. :)

No idea what caused that. Likely some weird driver clash/bug.
