error on non-existing keyboard

[ShinyAkko]

My device manager lists a Standard PS/2 Keyboard with an error, but I neither have one nor even a PS/2 port on my mainboard.

I tried simply uninstalling the keyboard in device manager but after a reboot it just appears again.

I wanted to just ignore it but this morning I got a bluescreen and when I googled the code it apparently was driver related and the only error listed in device manager is this one so I guess this phantom keyboard was the issue.

The code was kmode exception not handled and it hasn't appeared again after I disabled fast startup but I'm still worried.

Thats an odd one. What kind of error is device manager showing? 

Curious about that bluescreen though, mind uploading the minidump for it? (located in C:\Windows\Minidump)

This is the dmp file and what device manager is showing me.

Minidump points to tcpip.sys (Networking related) which doesn't seem to be related (could be wrong) but bundled together with this nonexistant ps/2 keyboard I would start with reinstalling motherboard drivers.

I installed the ethernet driver from Gigabyte's site. Chipset and audio drivers were already the latest version since I only put this new mainboard in and fresh installed about two weeks ago. I didn't install the RAID driver since I don't intend to use it. Other drivers weren't offered.

After a reboot the mysterious keyboard is still there. Could it maybe be a fake keyboard in one of my Razer things? Usually those show up as USB tho...

Unplug the thing and find out?

Unplugged absolutely everything, deleted the device and rebooted, it came back again. Maybe the ghost of keyboards past is haunting my computer.
