My Razer Keyboards not working when playing games

Hi everyone. 

I’ve been facing this issue with my previous Razer keyboard so I bought a new one. I’ve been using this keyboard for 4 months. I’ve tried cleaning the USB ports, changed some settings, try updating drivers and reinstalling Synapse. The keyboard rgb will flicker so much and I can’t type anything and that also happen when I’m launch a game or trying to launch other software. Is there any fix for this? 

I’ve taken a video of my keyboard issue the link is below.

 

Thank you

I’d test the keyboard on other PC, but sounds like an software issue on your PC.

Sounds great but what should I do with software? Try a different Synapse?

You can try Synapse 4 for eg. if you havent used it yet.

Also you can try doing clean Synapse reinstall:

  1. Uninstall Synapse
  2. Download & run this tool: https://rzr.to/Tf53xj to remove any razer drivers/leftovers
  3. Then restart your PC
  4. After reboot install Synapse again (as administrator).

But first I’d recommend trying it on another PC.
