Keyboard suddenly dies

Recommended Posts

I was looting and suddenly keyboard died. Non of ingame controls on keyboard worked anymore, no tab, no escape, no movement, nothing. But mouse keeps working. Only ALT-Tab and force closing a game helps. After reloging it's working. I am using laptop with usb keyboard. This problem has been existing earlier also. What can cause this to happen and is there any fix for that or is it a game bug? Am i the only one?

First, Try to update your BIOS and all drivers on your computer. Some problems are fixed after doing so.

ASUS: http://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1008276 <---

DELL:http://www.dell.com/support/home/us/en/19/Products/?app=drivers <---

HP: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers <---

LENOVO: http://support.lenovo.com/us/en  <---

TOSHIBA: http://support.toshiba.com/ <---

ALIENWARE: http://support.alienware.com/Support_Pages/Restricted_Pages/driver_downloads.aspx <---

 

That's a list of more common Laptop manufacturers and such. Hope you are able to fix it that way.

 

Next, Verify the Integrity of your game cache.

1: Right click on DayZ, and select properties.

2:Then select the LOCAL FILES tab and hit VERIFY INTEGRITY OF GAME CACHE....

3: It will bring up a window with a progress bar. LET IT COMPLETE. If any files are missing, it will reacquire them.

I hope that solves the problem.

Did you hear a "Bwommmp" sound, which signifies a crash-to-desktop? (CTD)  Also, if you haven't already, report your post to get it moved.  It's right at the top, next to the time you posted it.

Did you check or try changing USB power suspend option?

Go to: control panel-power options-edit power plan -change advanced power settings-USB settings -USB selective suspend setting

No "bwommmp" sound, because game keeps running, i can do everythin with mouse, aim, shoot and thats basically it.

Thanks for the fast replys. This problem wont happen too oftenly and i hope it will never happen again.
