Can't use ANY new keyboard.
Hey folks. I just made five trips to Futureshop. At first, I was shopping for a wireless keyboard & mouse combo. I went through four of those before I surmised that my computer was having issues with the wireless adapters on all of them (different models). I then turned to a last resort of buying a wired keyboard. Upon connecting the new wired keyboard, I discovered that my Windows is blocking all new devices for some reason. My old keyboard works (sticky from champagne the other night), my mouse works, all my devices connect properly. I have installed, uninstalled, updated, etc, as far as drivers are concerned. I bought a Steelseries Apex Raw. Windows keeps recognizing that the device is plugged in, but has no drivers associated. The name even shows up. I'm a little confused as to how even a USB keyboard could fail to install properly on a Windows system.
Obviously there's an issue with my system, but I can't figure it out for the life of me. Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.
