Just got a new Cherry KC1000 keyboard to use as a secondary keyboard on my laptop.
First time plugging it in it didn't work, I looked up all sorts of solutions online.
My mouse and everything else works, on every single USB port.
Here's what I've tried:
It works in BIOS.
It doesn't work in safe mode.
It works on a different computer.
It works for a few seconds if I uninstall the drivers and then restart the PC. As soon as the new drivers are being installed, the keyboard stops responding.
I tried updating USB drivers and keyboard drivers, still doesn't work.
I uninstalled Windows Update KB2887069, which I read messed someone's USB devices up, didn't solve my problem.
I've plugged it into both USB 2.0 and 3.0, both don't work.
The keyboard has 4 "special buttons", to open the calculator, open Windows Live Mail, get to my browser's home page and set the laptop to sleep. All 4 of these buttons do work. Nothing else on the keyboard works though.
I'm pretty desperate at this point so any help is greatly appreciated.
