Heey everyone!

It's time for another installment of my line of blogs, whining about everything and anything and making a fool out of myself! On today's show we've got computer errors! Yay!

OK cutting the cheerful tone (you're now reading this is the voice of Morgan Freeman), I woke up today and started my computer, standard procedure, and found that both my keyboard and my mouse were completely unresponsive. I restarted the computer and the same thing happened. Again. After plugging both the mouse and the keyboard out and in without change, I restarted it a third time, and after rolling my face on the keyboard for a while, in a Morgan Freeman-ish manner, it at least started working. I surfed to avg and attempted to download the free trial. I managed it, but it was difficult, because for some reason tabbing through the sites didn't show any marker, so I had to guess where I was going by looking at the address in the toolbar.

Anyway, the antivirus install failed at 99%, saying something about an msi error. Coincidentally, I seem to be unable to delete files. Hmmm.

So now I'm at work, and wouldn't you know this mouse was having issues as well. They're both logitech g500. *twiddles fingers* mysteeerious! I got this one working by plugging it out and back in though.

Now, obviously there are a billion different things that could be wrong here, and I'll have a great time tonight trying to figure this shit out, I was just wondering if anyone else noticed anything today, maybe it's like a timed virus or something?

Longshot? I dunno, I'm not really that tech savvy.

sounds like you got a virus, I recommend reformatting.
In Hungry Hungry Hippos there are no such constraints—one can constantly attempt to collect marbles with one’s hippo, limited only by one’s hippo-levering capabilities.

Not a virus. A virus would do a lot worse than stopping your peripherals from working.

I'll let it slide this time, prototype, but if it happens again you're going in the buttertub!

You mean like screwing up your browser and preventing you from installing and deleting files?

This is completely untrue. While viruses can be much more deadly, they can also be more docile. Anyway @OP, going to need some more info to actually be helpful. Install any windows updates before the keyboard/mouse stopped working? One step I would recommend you take is booting Ubuntu off a CD. If the peripherals work there you can be more certain that the problem is not hardware related (i.e. your Motherboard or keyboard/mouse are about to bite the dust).

After alot of nothing, they started working again. I'm gonna call this one fixed until it hits the fan again. Too lazy to find cause.
