RAZER BLACKWIDOW 2014 Gaming Keyboard. Razer Blackwidow 2014 Driver, Setup, Manual & Software Download. The Razer Blackwidow is instantly recognizable. The signature computed from Razer has existed for ages, with every year bringing several refinements and adjustments to the table.
So I have had a Naga mouse for a year and love it so thought I'd get the keyboard to match. Sadly I have had nothing but trouble with it and am in the process of sending it back. I appear I am not alone with the issues I've had, so I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone else has had similar experiences with this product, and what the outcome was.
So I bought the keyboard mid September 2016, got it home and set it all up. Within a week it kept dying, the lights would go out and it would cease to be recognised by my machine. Sometimes changing ports would work, others required a full on restart of a machine which had only been on for 2 hours. After some Googling I found out that the keyboard doesn't like USB3, so I changed my ports to use USB2.
The keyboard worked then for about a month with no issues, until all of a sudden it would just cease to respond. Sometimes the lights would stay on, others not, and again a port change would sometimes sort it, but others required a restart. Finally this week, the A key got stuck which I couldn't fix by the double tapping method, but fixed itself after a restart. The next day it happened again, and again the only solution was a restart.
My retailer asked me to go directly to Razer, who basically said to go to my retailer, whom I had to bully into giving me an RMA number via legal threats. This came along with a wad of T&C's including 'no fault found' fees. I'm worried that the fault is so intermittent that no proper testing will be done. The keyboard works for hours at a time before dying sometimes, others it's only half an hour. No RMA department will give it that much attention. Remove wga windows xp.
Razer BlackWidow Ultimate 2014 reviews, pros and cons. Liked: Razer's switches blend the best aspects of Cherry Blues and Blacks-at least for gaming. Disliked: Razer's new keyswitches. Hi (to anyone who is reading this). I've had the Razer Blackwidow ultimate 2014 edition for a while now and it is such an amazing keyboard. But as of recently, I say the new Razer Blackwidow ultimate 2016 edition with nice lighting effects e.g. Wave and reactive.
My wife has already bought me the headset to match the mouse and keyboard too.

Razer Blackwidow 2014 Driver
Hello everyone!
I have recently upgraded to a 1TB Samsung EVO SSD, upon reinstalling Windows 8.1 and going crazy at being able to have all of my games in one place I came across an issue with my Razer Blackwidow Ultimate 2014.
It all worked fine until I updated the ASMedia 3.0 USB drivers and all of a sudden boom, it lights up but no keys work UNLESS I install Razer Synapse 2.0 (which I hate).
So far I have:
Uninstalled the ASMedia 3.0 drivers
Rolled back the Razer Keyboard drivers
Installed old firmware / drivers whilst completely removing Synapse cleaning the registry.
Followed all tutorials found online.
If anyone can point me in the right direction to be able to use my peripherals again without this dreadful software that would be a godsend, it's been 5 hours I've sat here fiddling around now.
Cheers!
