Keyboard and mouse stop working in-game after 3 minutes... (steam)

[elDuebel]

after some minutes of gameplay, my keyboard stops working. Sometimes, the kb does "walk left". Last button pushed is send to the game...
after that, maybe 5 seconds later, the mouse also stops working.
Only thing thats possible at this moment, is pressing the hardware power button on my pc.
I had to stop "AMD USB 3.10 extensible Hostcontroller" in my device manager after the restart of my pc...

Still the same problem for me...

The game kills my usb controller in the device manager.

No one here, that has the same issue? Any chance for me, to play this game?

Same thing here only it's every few seconds.. Can't even play the first actual mission because as soon as it loads, it kills the usb controller and everything disconnects.. Very frustrating not being able to play..

I don't have this problem but maybe if you right click on the game in Steam -> Properties -> Controller -> Override for The Outer Worlds 2 : Disable Steam Input.
Would this work maybe?

Another thing you could try is to look in Windows Event Log Viewer (run -> eventvwr.msc), so when the problem happens ingame and you reboot PC (hard reset), maybe you can find what causes it in the log viewer.

Thank you so much for this solution, tried it, disabled the steam input and it works… I can play the game now, with mouse and keyboard…

so happy :-)
