[RESPONDED] Keyboard randomly stops working - Not OS, but not hardware either?

Just chiming in to do my part.

Got a Framework 16 DIY. I put it all together and got to the BIOS with everything working. Inserted a USB and the keyboard and touchpad stopped working (therefore not OS). I plugged in a USB mouse/keyboard which worked, but didn’t magically fix my problem. I installed Fedora 39, rebooted a bunch of times, and left the laptop turned off but nothing fixed it.

I just reset the BIOS then rebooted and now both work. I am running the BIOS that 16 Batch 1 shipped with.

If you’d bothered to read the thread you’d know that none of those are the cause of the errors described in this thread.
