Hi

 

So today i decided to update z87-a bios, because sometimes my k70 would stop working after pc restart (reconnecting it would solve the problem). I downloaded latest bios onto a flashdrive, plugged it into passthrough on the keyboard and flashed the bios without any problems. Now keyboard doesn't work at all, there is no led activity ant keys not registering, however i can see it in devices and printers. I'm on win 8.1 pro 64bit and its up to date. I tried to plug it in a laptop with win7 ultimate 64bit and got same results. I tried all the ports and other usb devices work just fine. Any suggestions? Sorry for my English :unsure:

Check the BIOS options on the keyboard itself.

You mean bios switch on the back of the keyboard? I tried it in every position.

try it on a different PC and/or different USB port.

Already tried everything. Could it happen because i used keyboard's passthrough to flash the bios?

Seems to be a problem with the keyboard. See if you can have it replaced.

I can RMA it, but shipping would probably cost half the price of the keyboard :unsure:

Uhh, I updated my BIOS many times with my Razer Blackwidow ... what do you mean by passthrough? the USB ? Else how would you flash the BIOS without a keyboard?.. lol.

No, it might be a keyboard faulty..

Flashed couple of bios versions without a keyboard already, using mouse in UEFI, but that's not the point. It's just strange that it stopped working right after i flashed mb bios.
