    Hi all,
    Since I've changed my QWERTZ KB into a frech AZERTY one, only half the keys are working.
    All the left part of the KB is not working. Keys from "p" and lower are working. So are the keypad's.
    I've double checked the connections, they seem fine.
    Any idea?
    Thanks a lot

    Re-insert the cable again.

    They can be a little finicky because of the pin count, good to hear it's working.

    Yes I'm relieved that it's working great. I changed my 1070 for a 1080 GTX in the meantime. It's working nicely and does not heat that much (75°C max on kombustor GPU burn in).

    Combuster is a variant on Furmark and is typically not recommended for notebooks.
