Razer DeathAdder v2 preventing computer from Booting Solution

Razer DeathAdder v2 preventing computer from Booting Since this thread was locked without any answer or solution I had to make a new thread with my own solution: Anyway for people with a similar issue, might be worth checking out: Issue:

• Computer won’t boot (to Windows) when specific USB device (mouse/keyboard) is connected.
• The computer will boot fine when specific USB device is not connected and the USB device will work fine when connected after booting.
• Other computers will boot fine when specific USB device is connected.

What is going on?

• The computer wrongly thinks this specific USB device is a boot device. This freezes the computer when it inspects the device / tries to boot from it.

Solution:

• Make sure storage operation mode is NOT set to RAID, and instead set to AHCI (https://support.thinkcritical.com/kb/articles/switch-windows-10-from-raid-ide-to-ahci)
• Setup boot priority/order correctly

Here’s a forum post that hinted me at the solution: https://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Notebook-Boot-and-Lockup/No-boot-if-Logitech-keyboard-mouse-wireless-receiver-left-in/td-p/7004633
