Title: WKL B.87 Just stopped working
Post by: MoarCoffeePlzzz on Mon, 25 April 2016, 17:19:49
Hey all. I am having an issue where my WKL B87 is not working. I plug the USB in and caps light flashes when the usb connector is about halfway in. I have tried it on this laptop and my desktop and it doesnt work. I have also tried different usb cables. Does anyone have a work around to this problem. It was bought by a fellow geekhack user and only used for a month or so, prior to that he had only about 1hr of use on it.

Please help!!

You might have switched to PS/2 mode.  Try holding the 'U' key down while you're plugging it in.

Didnt work :-/ Im getting scared now. This is my only keyboard.. Unless I use this macbook.

Now the capslock didnt flash when I plug it in.


**Update.** I got it to work on my MAC with the hold U trick. But wont work with my Desktop. I will keep you posted with the status.

**Update 2** A reset of the PC worked. It wouldnt work in and USB until that. This Asus X99 Deluxe is a piece of junk. I have had to RMA 2 of them.. Ugh..

Whew. I was worried there for a moment because I thought it was my B.87.

Then I remembered I never sold you my B.87 and I'm typing on it right now.  :p
