BSOD with new keyboard

BouncyChillups

Hi guys,

 

I'm having a very weird problem.

My pc has been running very very smoothly for a long time now, without any software issues, crashes etc.

However, today I already had two bsod for no reason at all. 

First of all I hope of course that its not a hardware problem. I checked the drivers as far as I could and they all seemed to be in order. The bios is fine as well, I have a slight overclock on my system but its been running very smoothly as I said.

 

The last two bsod I had were:

- kmode exception not handled

and lastly: - critical structure corruption

 

The funny thing is now that I had the problems since I bought a new gaming keyboard last thursday. I got the Kingston HyperX Alloy Elite RGB and installed their software for lighting and since then I've had the problems.

I tried to run a sfc scannow test via cmd earlier and it wouldnt finish, just said "'Windows Resource Protection could not perform the requested operation".

I now unplugged the keyboard, ran it again and it worked. As well as no new bsod since I took away the keyboard.

Could it really be that the keyboard is the culprit? If so, did I just get a bad model or is it maybe the software?

 

Would be really glad about some help, my system specs are:

 

-Ryzen 1700x

msi x370 gaming plus

32gb g.skill ripjaws v 3200

samsung 960 evo

samsung 860 evo

gigabyte windforce oc gtx 1070

Yes sadly, I had wireless Logitech keyboard do the same thing. Never did find anything else wrong. But as soon as I DC'd it all worked fine.

Did you try with the keyboard plugged in again? kmode exception not handled has been associated with a term for a faulty driver so its possible that some corruption happened when you installed the keyboard at first.

I just plugged it in again and am trying to see if the error occurs without the software installed. Then I'll install the software again.

Also used a different usb port now for the keyboard

Many good producers made great hardware and bad software. Look at Asus - great motherboards, graphics cards, routers and crappy software and firmware. Look at preinstalled software on good laptops that are much heavier than options you have in Windows and do nothing more except nicer gui. This may be similar - good keyboard with crappy software. I would looking on some forums related to Kingston products - maybe you'll find more people with the same problem.
