Hi all, i've recently built a new comp - along with it i'm also using a new blue saitek keyboard (this is my second 1 as the 1 i had before stopped working after a year)...

So after plugging it in, turning on the comp - straight away it was gleaming bright blue... now however it's simply stopped lighting up, or it will light half way, and when i press a key the light goes off, and stays off - the little buttons on the top right corner won't bring this back, and the volume control 1's aren't working either. This occurred within about 5 minutes of plugging it in...

What i want to know - is this likely to be a fault with the keyboard, or could it be to do with the USB ports not providing enough power for whatever reason? I would've thought this sort of device would either work, or not, after being plugged in? I am still fighting an uphill battle to get this pc set up properly (OEM parts from a mate), could it be a missing USB motherboard driver causing havoc?

Thanks for any advice :)
 
It's an onboard USB, i've tried more than 1... it's not lighting up at all now, what a crock of ****, shorting out after 10 seconds :mad:
