Hi, sometimes on starting up my PC the keyboard doesn't work the lights come on but it doesn't type, restarting the PC solves the problem, but its annoying having to do it.

what could be the problem?
the keyboard is a q-pad mk50

The first question would be what port are you using to connect the keyboard to the computer (PS/2, USB 2, USB 3)?

A lot of problems can be caused by using USB 3 ports for peripherals or by using a controller which is not part of the motherboard such as a PCIe USB card.
