So i spill a bit of coffee on my keyboard, not the whole cup just a bit, and deciced to clean the keys. when i was removing the keys, suddenly the keyboard started to act weird, keys where like shorcuts or something was wrong with it, i deciced to restart the computer to see if i pressed something wrong. after i restarted the keyboard was dead, no lights,no input. the only thing i can see its that the keyboard its listed as unknow device, i tried to check drivers,try other usb ports or cables,unninstall synapse and i check the weird mode it has with esc and m5, i think it was called debug mode. anyway, none of that worked out. There might be a hardware problem?

Yes, coffee "killed" PCB on keyboard. You can try to disassemble it completely and use 100% IPA (Isopropyl alcohol) and wash the corrosion caused by water (with some small brush) - sometimes it helps, sometimes some parts needs a new solder.

Update, so...... after a lot of trial and error, it was a software problem, i downloaded the drivers manually,that fixed the keyboard being listed as unknow, it was responsive, but i found another problem, wich was synapse not recognizing it, what it fixes that was deleting the old drivers or listed blackwidow keyboards (with view hidden on devices) Im typing this so in any case someone has a similar problem, hope my english is decent enough so it can be understandable Cheers! ♥
