Frozen keyboard/mouse after overnight idle
So, long story. Got Logitech G510 keyboard and G600 mouse 10years ago, they still work like a charm. Custom game profiles, LCD screen, etc. Once used to it, hard to go without.
Anyway, PC is always on, just screens go off after some time. Since 2013 i had this problem that sometimes after moving the mouse or pressing anything on the keyboard to wake screens in the morning, screens wake up, but mouse is not responding to movement or button presses, same with keyboard.
PC isnt frozen, just not reacting to input devices, plugging in another USB keyboard/mouse doesnt help. Sometimes it happens once a year, sometimes once a month. Now its 99% each morning.
Now it becomes weird, no input works, not event alt+f4, but G# function keys on the keyboard for some reason work, ctrl+alt+del also works and brings me to log off, restart, switch user, task manager screen. Mouse and keyboard work on that screen.
Going back to desktop, and they are dead. C+A+D again and trying task manager to kill some program doesnt work since it brings task manager to desktop and nothing works there.
I suspected some program is the problem, so log off user and relogging as same user works, since it exits and restarts what was running anyway.
Who better to blame then Logitech Gaming software that controls all custom keys and lightning on devices. So i made a G Function key to kill Logitech.exe and even if everything is dead, that G function key works , kills LGS and i got pc control again. Restart LGS and continue working.
This persisted some 4-5 pcs, few different windows, completely new hardware. All those PCs had one thing in common, using same keyboard/mouse and Logitech software. So we can be sure who to blame.
Problem is hard to recreate, it happens when pc sits idle overnight. From barely ever happening (still annoying when it happened), to now each morning screens waking up to dead input device. Tried a few LGS versions over the years, same thing.
I could live with it happening now and again, but daily is driving me nuts.
Current pc:
Asus Strix B550 Gaming + Ryzen 5600 (nothing OCd)
32gb Corsair LPX ram @ 3200
Radeon 6700
SSD + HDD
Windows is fully updated to Version 22H2 - 19045.2965
Ideas? Sometimes it happens, now most of the time after latest windows updates. But had that problem long ago, only now its dialed to 11.
