I own a Filco Majestouch Ninja II TKL. The keyboard is 100% stock. I picked up a good bit of static (nylon workout pants) in my dry house today and touched my keyboard. I believe it was the escape key I hit. I felt the static shock in my finger tip and the keyboard ceased working. I turned computer off, un plugged and replugged it. Boot into windows and so far everything appears to work okay however the capslock LED no longer illuminates. I am surprised it discharged into plastic, I must have had a good bit of static. Scroll lock LED still illuminates. LED's annoy me so I am not too sad about its loss.
I tested each key and I believe they all still work, also it appears the Nkey rollover still works. Any ideas? Should I expect this thing to keep working provided it isn't accidentally static shocked again?
The KB was on PS/2 port via adapter. Since reboot I have tested USB and PS/2 but LED still won't illuminate. Very surprised as the Escape button is as far from the LED as you can get, so possibly I accidentally damaged the controller?
