Detachable Table PC Keyboard wont work after being reattached

[ImaginaryMusic]

I recently bought a brand new tablet pc and, right from the beggining, ive noticed this frustrating thing. I'll detach the keyboard and, then reatach it, it wont work again unless i restart my pc. Which is very irritating  I updated all of my drivers with a software updater and, i updated windows.

The same thing happens when i use the USB port. I have to plug something in before the pc is completely on. if i take it out, i have to restart the pc for it to work again.

I'm also having a lot more issues than just that as well. Every time i shut down my pc, i get an windows error message and, it immidiately restarts itself. I cant get it to shut off unless its completely out of power. So, this thing is on almost, 24/7. Which is terrible for battery life.

Hi @ImaginaryMusic

Welcome to HP Support Forums. A really great platform for posting all your questions and finding solutions.

I see that you are facing multiple issues with your  HP x2 210 G2

I'd like to help.

I suggest you Reset the Notebook to Factory Settings since you are having issues with the OS. Once you have done the System Recovery, complete all the Windows update and drivers.

Note: Please back up your data.

- Turn off the computer.Disconnect all connected devices and cables such as Personal Media Drives, USB drives, printers, and faxes.
- Turn on the computer and repeatedly press the F11 key about once every second until the Choose an option screen is displayed, and then continue.
- On the Choose an Option screen, click Troubleshoot.
- On the Troubleshoot screen, click Recovery Manager.
- Under Help, click System Recovery.
- When Recovery Manager prompts you to back up your files, select a backup option:
- The Welcome to HP Recovery Manager screen is displayed. Read the on-screen information, and then disconnect any connected devices and cables, such as Personal Media Drives, USB drives, printers, and faxes.
- Remove media from internal drives, and remove any recently added internal hardware.
- Click Next to continue.
- When recovery preparation is complete, click Continue to proceed to the installation phase of the recovery process. The computer restarts several times during the recovery. This is normal. Do not close, shut down, or disconnect the computer while HP Recovery runs.
- Recovery Manager reformats the Windows partition and reinstalls the original software.
- After the system recovery is complete, click Finish to restart the computer. Complete the setup screens and wait until the computer finishes the setup.
- Once the setup is complete, turn off the computer, reconnect all devices and cables, and then turn on the computer.
- Before using the computer, update and protect your computer by reinstalling any virus and security software that was installed before the system recovery.
- Reinstall any software programs that were added after purchasing the computer, as well as any files that were backed up.

Then download the Bios from Here and complete all the Windows and Drivers update.

Keep me posted how it goes.

Thank you. 🙂
