Hey guys. I recently put together a computer(my first build) and I had no problems with it until now. It's been working for a couple months just fine so I'm wondering if it's just something going bad. My keyboard and mouse randomly stop working, and most of the time it's while I'm playing World of Warcraft. The keyboard stops working except I can still Ctrl-Alt-Delete to get task manager, and the Windows key brings up the start menu. The cursor still moves when you move the mouse, but clicking does nothing.
I would say this is a software issue, not a hardware issue! (So there are [hopefully] no hardware problems...) When else has this happend?
Check for Viruses, if you dont have any antivirus then download Avast Home edition. Its free and good...
there are no viruses. i'm very good at not getting anything harmful. I DID find out what is happening. I opened up iTunes and the music was blaring, so I turned down the volume using the knob on the keyboard, only it was still blaring. Apparently the keyboard volume knob causes a lockup. I rebooted and tried using again, same result. lockup. I'm not sure if I can get a driver for it or not, any help appreciated. Keyboard: Dell RT7D30 I'm in the process of finding a driver for it now. If anyone knows where I can get it plz let me know. Dell doesn't seem to have it anymore.
