Hi everyone. I'm having some issues with razer arctosa keyboard drivers. They seem to be causing my PC to lag up keyboard input at random occasions and have caused a BSOD or two so far as indicated by the logs. Arctosa.sys seems to be the cause of this.
Here is a small list of things I've done so far. Not all of them, but all I can remember right off.
Replacing the keyboard(tried to replace it with another arctosa.. then seeing that this did not fix it, returned it and got a Logitec G510. Issue remains)
Uninstalling any drivers I installed since the date it started happening, along with programs. I did this through add/remove programs and cleaned most of them through driver sweeper(couldn't find arctosa on there)
Checked the admin logs to see if anything funny showed up. Nothing.
Checked sticky keys, and made sure everything was right.
Switched from MSN to a different messaging program to see if this was what was causing it(before I knew it was the drivers)
Checked for any spare USB devices that may have been lingering on the system using USBDeview and removed any I saw. Didn't resolve the issue.
Ran several antivirus scans and antispyware scans. Few things found. Few things cleaned. Issue still occurs
Cleaned the registry of anything related to arctosa.
Perhaps I just need to find a way to remove that sys file once and for all, but I don't really know.
