Hi,
I'm not sure what is going on with my computer. This morning I found my keyboard wouldn't respond to the log in screen. I tried unplugging and plugging the keyboard. It seemed to have an effect in that pressing the backspace button did result in something being entered as the dots/blobs appeared in the box.
My mouse was working fine, so I restarted, and it worked, which made me wonder if it was just a glitch.
The next I started my computer the same thing, but this time I got another keyboard thinking it was the first keyboard...nope! So I plugged the first into different USB ports and got nothing.
I looked online via my kindle, and read about updating drivers, but I can't update drivers if I can't log in. I did find that I could interrupt the start and enter BIOS and my keyboard worked fine. Anyway, somehow, it started working after another restart and by unplugging and plugging in the keyboard.
So the first thing I do is update drivers via the internet, but am told my keyboard driver is up to date.
So I come here.
Obviously, I can't log in without a keyboard to type in passwords, so that is concern. Also, what could be causing this? The computer is about 9 months old, and I use it for work (word and excel), internet and recently all I've been playing is Civ 5 (modded) and Planetside 2.
Anything I need to know.
Thanks for reading.
