Don’t call in a technician yet. There are a few basic steps you can take to fix the problem on your own. In this post, we’ll share some tricks you can try yourself to get your mouse and keyboard working again.
Reboot The Computer

A Temporary Keyboard
If restarting the computer doesn’t work and your keyboard has stopped working, you’ll need a temporary one that works. Fortunately, Windows has a built-in keyboard for such an occasion.
