Hello! I recently assembled a PC and faced some challenges with the Wi-Fi cards. Everything seemed fine until recently, when the keyboard suddenly stopped working mid-use. I've checked for hardware changes, used various keyboards and USB ports, but nothing resolved the issue. After installing the Outbyte Driver Updater and applying the keyboard class filter, the drivers still showed a "!" next to them. Clicking them would trigger a reinstallation prompt, but when I did that, some entries were missing or failed to install properly, disappearing afterward. I performed a factory reset, but it didn't help because I overlooked the need to wipe files and settings. A full reset followed, yet the same problems persisted—Windows updates appeared, but keyboards remained non-functional, and the device manager still showed the same issues. I also tried updating to a new Windows repair version, but the problem continued. There don’t seem to be official drivers available for either keyboard model I own, which is quite frustrating. Anyone have any suggestions?
