What should I delete from the registry to make windows forget a keyboard?
I owned a Corsair Vengeance K90. Occasionally it would stop working. About once a month, it seemed like an issue with unplugging. I could only fix it by removing it and plugging it into another USB port. Since I had a Rampage IV Extreme, I had several. After about a year, I ran out of ports. The keyboard stopped functioning. I reached out to Corsair, who tried to assist but sent me a K95 instead. I got that one, plugged it in, and the same problem returned. Interestingly, the keyboard itself wasn’t broken—it was a new K95. The issue was with Windows; when I booted up, all functions worked normally, but at the "starting windows" screen it went dark and didn’t detect anything. Even if I unplugged and plugged it back in, nothing happened. I tried reinstalling drivers, tweaking settings, and even used a guide from SmallVoid, but nothing resolved it. I also looked into Ghostbuster, which helped remove old drivers, but it didn’t fix the Windows conflict. Now I suspect a small part of the Corsair driver or service is still in Windows, preventing detection. I’m hoping someone can point me to the registry entry to delete and see if that resolves it. Thanks for any help!
I see, I have around 50 entries that look yellow or red. Maybe I should review them and remove some. Thanks for the update! I have about 1000 total entries, but none resemble Corsair.
