Keyboard making computers go into standby

M

MrReaper

For no apparent reason, my keyboard has made both my desktop and laptop go into standby when its plugged in. My keyboard is a Saitek Eclipse. I havn't done anything to my keyboard to make this happen and theres no standby button on it. I had googled but had no luck. Anyone know how to stop this? I don't want to buy a new keyboard seeing as this cost me around £30 and dont too much money to buy a new one.
There are no drivers available on the manufacturers site as it is a standard plug and play USB keyboard.
 
I really want to avoid buying a new one. I don't understand how this can happen out of the blue. I'm willing to try anything to get it working again.
 
It is hardware failiure, not a software one.

In order to fix it you would need to pull it all apart and figure out where the problem lies.

If it is a faulty membrane then your chances of fixing it are zero.


I have fixed a few keyboards in the past so if you decide to open it im im quite happy to help as much as i can.
 
Well I've had the keyboard for over a year so I guess I can't really void the warranty lol.
Its almost 1:30am and not in the right frame of mind to open it today lol.
If I get time tomorrow, I will open it up and post what I see.
