    Hey, my keyboard stops working when I boot to windows. It's active during the POST screen, the windows boot screen, and then it just doesn't work. I used to be able to change the usb plug it's plugged into to get it working. Now I have it plugged into a front usb port but that wasn't working for a while, either.
    Anyone know what the problem is? The USB ports clearly still work. Just not in windows. And they work with OTHER DEVICES in the back, too, just not my keyboard.

    Reinstall your chipset driver?

    Found out my default keyboard drivers were somehow corrupted? When I reinstalled them, it picked it up, and here I am typing on it from the back. Thanks man. :)
