Razer Huntsman not working anymore...

Hi everyone,

I'll cut right to the chase, I wanted to give my Huntsman keyboard another run at being my main for a while at least (after switching to the SW edition blackwidow). I plug it in, works fine, even remembered all the settings I had when I used it last time.

After about 30 mins, the lights just freeze in place ( I was running starlight in synapse ) and no keys would register. I tried unplugging and plugging it back in, didn't work, and didn't appear in synapse anymore.

Then I tried doing the hard reset with the esc+caps+space and letting go of the keys after plugging it back in.

I also repaired synapse, but still it won't work.

Did it just brick itself somehow? I just don't understand...

The most frustrating thing is that my warranty expired 3 months ago...

Any ideas?

Sorry to hear about your beloved keyboard's concern. Have you tried resetting the Razer Huntsman via Razer Synapse settings? Please send me the device's serial number via PM should you need additional assistance. Let's continue our conversation there.
