I had to make an account just to share my experience with you guys. I've been a PC user since 1996, I use both MS Windows and a few different linux distros(mostly arch), I sort of know my way around a PC when I need to fix something. Anyway, with linux it sort of works with very limited functionality but whatever, didn't do much research before purchasing it but I knew it was going to be like it, under windows tho... I have been struggling with this ...device since august 2018, same issue as you guys, both with xb360 or xb1 controllers and logitech mouse (g502). This kb makes my games randomly hang on startup and I have to unplug it and keep it unplugged while I play with said games (games like dark souls 1 - 2 -3, bulletstorm - either the old version or the remaster, PES2018 - 2019 and 2020 to name a few). Also messes with the windows gamepad setting tool and it freezes until I unplug the PoS. This happens with their software installed, without it, even on an "untainted" windows installation (as in, I reinstalled win from scratch without installing the corsair software in order to keep the machine free from their low quality software products). Still no joy. I am a paying customer, I should not have to deal with such bs. What fixed the issue for me was unplugging it, going in my workshop room, smashing it with a hammer and then leaving the device (or what was left of it)where it belonged in the first place, the trash can. I know it's not a very environmental friendly approach but I could not see any other way to fix it. Thankfully you can find better keyboards from other brands for the same price range and they will work without this dumb issues. What a joke of a company, wasted £50 on this PoS. I will make sure that every one that I know that is interested in gaming pc hardware avoids this brand as hard as I can. Not only I will not give them any money, I will actively do as much as I can to prevent other people giving you any money whatsoever. Glad I got free of the problem. I would advise anyone with this issue to seek for a refund and buy a kb from any other company.
