Title: Keyboard not responding
Post by: MrTAToad on 2011-Aug-24
For some reason after a fair few Window runs, my keyboard stops responding (which Windows 7 detects and fixes).  It's a USB keyboard...

Does it make a beeep-ing sound, when you hit a key then?

Oh no - no sound, just no key response in any program...

Have you a spare keyboards to try ? a ps2 one preferably
there's not much to keyboards but they do go faulty
might also be a usb issue if win 7 keeps finding it and
reinstalling.

play with the cable - does it bring the plug/unplug sound then? I had a usb hub that had a faulty cable and cursed my bones why the Android adb did not find my device :/

Windows 7 doesn't re-install drivers or anything - it just detects the USB keyboard isn't responding when the keyboard troubleshooting is run.  No idea how it manages to fix it - but it does!

It affects all aspects of Windows though - no keyboard entry can be performed in any program.  Dont forget it only happens after several runs of the Windows program...

I'll see if it will detect the cable being taken in out and though.

I'll give that a go later on.

Adding SLEEP 1 doesn't help.  The problem seems to occur when a 3D camera hasn't been setup...

Forgot to add one and keyboard was unresponsive - add in the camera and all was okay...
