Seems like it's dead. Last resort, test it with another system. If it does not work there either, contact the vendor for replacement if it's in warranty. Electrical surge like you got can easily fry electronics.

Hi Sam, it seems to be defective as a keyboard. However, please check if its a ps2 connector and ensure all of the pins are lined up. if it's a USB connector, check the usb connector and see if there is anything out of wack (damaged, bent, et cetra).

You may just want to purchase a new keyboard.

How old is the keyboard? What is the model? Are you planning on buying another keyboard? Try blowing the connector with some compressed air then try. Also, uninstall the drivers and try reinstalling them. Let me know

If that doesn't work, reinstall the keyboard drivers.

Ok, so open up device manager and look for your keyboard. First, ensure that there are no warning signs; exclamation points inside a triangle. So what you would want to do is locate the keyboard via Keyboards tab. then right click the keyboard in the dropdown box and click properties. Then click the Driver tab followed by uninstall device. Then restart your PC and let it PnP and let me know if that works.

So I failed to see the "it kinda punched me with electricity"

As a result, it probably shorted out the function portion of the keyboard and not the lighting. Check to see if you have warranty for the keyboard. If not, buy another one because this one is dead.

Sorry to hear that, things happen all the time. Save up for another keyboard

Also, if you have another keyboard try that.
