Logitech G110 Keyboard, Saitek R.A.T. 7 Mouse. And 60 dollars worth of game, and 50 dollars worth of "subscriptions" and it doesn't even respond to basic input... simcity now this EA what the hell are you even doing?
Guys... it's the stupid onscreen keyboard service. If you're running windows 8. Winkey+w and type "Services" and press enter. Find "touch Keyboard and Handwriting Panel Service" Right click > Properties>Disable Then right click your task bar >Properties>Toolbars and verify that the "touch keyboard" is off.
BF4 is using the stupid soft keyboard as the input device instead of the phsyical keybaord. EA's QA ppl need to go take lessons.

I've always had the touch keyboard & services disabled. Still not working.

***Ok, so I fixed my issue. ***
I have a Logitech Wingman joystick that was plugged in, when I unplugged it everythign started working. Still not happy with this as I like to use the joystick for flying in the game. It would be nice to use both at the same time and I think it is not unreasonable to think they should be able to work together.
If your's is still not working then try unplugging any and all USB peripherals. It may solve your problem.

I have a Logitech MX518 mouse and a Microsoft Comfort Curve 2000 keyboard. They are the only USB peripherals plugged in.

Yeah I found that when I went back to the game after posting this it stopped working again. so I hit win+w again and opened services to check it was not re-enabled... and it was still off but when I went back to the game it was working again....
Perhaps it was the act of opening an MMC window? (Microsoft Management Console) which is what the services window is. This is a legacy part of windows. Perhaps it changes how windows is handling I/O ? More testing is needed! Is everyone having this problem, and not fixing it by unplugging controllers, using windows 8?
