Keyboard/Mouse randomly stop responding (PS/2)
Recently I have been having this problem where my PS/2 keyboard and mouse both stop responding. The lights are still on, but neither work. Sometimes it happens just to my mouse, and not the keyboard, but usually both. When it happens, they are not responding for anywhere from a few seconds, to a few minutes (but by that point I restart the computer). If it happens just to the mouse, putting the computer to sleep using the keyboard and wakening it again fixes the problem.
I have tried to update the drivers in device manager by letting windows search for them online, but it says they are up-to-date.
I also checked all the connections inside the computer, unplugging and re-plugging each one as well as air-dusting.
Is anyone able to help me find out whats wrong, or how I can fix it?
Thanks in advance.
EDIT: If I can't find a fix, I think I will just purchase a USB mouse and keyboard, but I'd rather try fix the problem first.
EDIT 2: I am still very much in need of help.
