Uponimaging a Surface Laptop 2 with our basic image from the older Surface laptop model the Surface Hid Mini Driver driver fails to power and thus the keyboard doesn't work. if I revert back to 03/27/2017 driver it works fine... but then the laptop automatically updates itself to the latest version that brakes again. I have blocked the update in WSUS.

Is anybody aware of a fix for the latest driver? Does the PC somehow think its a Surface Laptop 1st gen and somehow downloading the incorrect driver possibly? I also downloaded the latest firmware/driver package from MS and tried that version and it also doesn't work. Seems to be the same exact version that gets downloaded from Windows Update.


@WC_KStil did you ever get the specific version of the driver that works? I keep running into this issue every update cycle. I have a surface laptop 2 and the "Surface Hid Mini Driver" flakes out every update. I've tried the all of the drivers from Download Surface Laptop 2 Drivers and Firmware from Official Microsoft Download Center :


I've tried uninstalling the driver and re-installing but that never seems to work, even disabling the driver and re-enabling doesn't work. I'm not sure what happens in UEFI entry, but that seems to make it work again for me. Beware - your mileage may vary!!! This seems to be a very common issue but different tasks seem to work for different people. I sure hope Microsoft can fix this as it is a pain as it usually happens when I really need to get some work done!


Sign in and select Surface Laptop 2 and input your Surface's serial number. Click on Download and Save it to your desktop. Do not download the Recovery Image directly on the USB drive but on the Downloads folder on the computer.


@GBowlsby - this worked perfectly. Frustratingly, I'd foolishly listened to other ideas with consequences that'll now cost me even more time (somehow our AI/ML needs to intercept bad or half-arse solutions with ones that actually work :)) Regardless to my live 'en learn: Thanks!


The only thing I can think of is that this model of Dell Precision was not tested in the Fall Creator update back in OCT17 by Dell. Drivers were not updated, so either some other driver might work or there is no telling if something could hose the drivers all together. It also could be possible that Windows 10 is not supported for this machine all together.


Another possibility is that someone could have plugged something into the USB ports causing Windows to flake out for I/O device drivers. I did one more test and was able to read/write a flash drive, but not a desktop scanner or other brand/model keyboard and mouse.


I was having this same issue, just with a different model of keyboard/mouse (Dell machine and wireless keyboard/mouse combo) and after uninstalling the KB4074588 update like michellelieske suggested, the issue was resolved. I was able to remote into the machines and uninstall that way. My best guess is that it was a registry change made by the patch that caused the issue.


The issue was that most USB devices would not be recognized, as well as the touch screen would not work. The USB devices would return a code 28. For example, plugging in a mouse would cause the red light on it to appear for several seconds before turning off. I had tried disabling selective suspend by editing the registry and a lot of other unsuccessful items.


thanks for your quick reply IIIaass. I have downloaded all the windows support drivers from bootcamp assistant but nothing seems to be working, reinstalled, repaired the drivers etc. it says 'driver error' could you send a link to correct driver for wireless keyboard. Maybe, it is the driver!


I installed bootcamp the both to a mac mini, and everything works fine there (wireless keyboard too), but for the installation onto a macpro late 2013 everything works fine, WI-FI, GPU, wireless mouse, BT, etc. all of the drivers are OK, with the exception of the wireless keyboard where the bluetooth manager says: Driver Error.


You have to go to "Device Manager" (right click on Start: Device Manager option), at the HID leaf (that stands open 'cause of a driver error), simply uninstall and delete the wrong driver. Magically everything works fine, and the wireless keyboard will be reported on the Keyboards leaf of the Device Manager.


This didn't work for me. I have exactly the same problem. It says "driver error" for the keyboard, while the magic mouse works fine. If I delete the driver, it shows a "System Administrator's Keyboard" is connected with bluetooth, but the keyboard still doesn't work.
