keyboard stops working

[Ed H]

Hey:

After a shutdown or standby my keyboard will not work sometimes. In device
manager, the yellow flag is visible. I "uninstall," reboot and it will work
again. Never have used a disc for the keyboard, it has always worked off
generic drivers (?)

Thank you,

Thank you,

I would try another keyboard, perhaps a borrowed one
from a friend.

Is the keyboard wireless or wired? Is the problem with all keys are
some? What is the make and model of the keyboard?

Hope this helps.

It is a wired (USB) keyboard. All keys are out and there are no lights
either. The make? Oh, it's a "DYNEX." Had it over a year, no problem before.

Hi Ed,

Sounds like a flakey USB port. Try a different one if available, and a
different USB keyboard to isolate this.

Okay I'll give it a shot. Thanks.
