![]() Thinking perhaps it was a USB power issue (though it's still odd that it would manifest so randomly, to my knowledge there were no Windows/Steam updates at the moment the controller started acting up), I ordered a powered USB hub from Amazon and plugged in the large supplemental power brick, and plugged the keyboard itself into one of the "high power" USB slots on the front of the hub. If I re-plug the keyboard after the game launches it would sometimes work fine for a bit but eventually it would freeze up requiring me to unplug the keyboard. Ditto games that would freeze/lock up, unplugging the keyboard would resolve it instantly. I closed steam and tried to load the game controller panel in Windows 10 - even the system simply polling the controller for that caused it to seize up.until I unplugged the keyboard of curiosity and desperation, and the game controller panel suddenly sprang to life. I tried disabling the CUE software, but that did not resolve the issue - my Steam/360 controllers would either work fine for a short while and eventually stop responding within a game, or the game would freeze up. Browsing these forums I noticed threads mentioning conflicts with the CUE software and Steam - it seemed odd that the keyboard would work fine with my setup and then start causing problems out of the blue. Out of desperation I dug out the receiver for my 360 controller which exhibited the same problem. Thinking it was the controller itself, I tried replacing the batteries, same deal. This setup hadn't presented a problem for the few weeks I've had the keyboard, until randomly the other night while playing a game with my Steam controller, it started wigging out and becoming unresponsive. In addition to the K55 and M65 Pro, I have an off-brand USB headset and receivers for my Steam/360 controllers hooked up (typically, one or the other). I was gifted a Corsair K55 RGB keyboard and an M65 Pro mouse recently, and until very recently had no problems with them.
