I have a samsung laptop, model number NP350E7C-A01US. Every time I insert anything into one of my four USB ports, I get the error: "USB Device not recognized".

You can see the laptop here: https://www.samsung.com/us/support/owners/product/NP350E7C-A01US

    The program that runs the On Screen Keyboard is "C:\Program Files\Common Files\microsoft shared\ink\TabTip.exe"

     There is also the original On Screen Keyboard from earlier operating systems still floating around in Windows 8.

    C:\Windows\System32\OSK.exe.

    Maybe your Keyboard is damaged and the Key needs replacing.

    Thank you, that worked. I tried that before but it didn't work. It works fine now though! I do have another problem, this one began more recently. I can't for the life of my get the windows key to do it's job correctly anymore. Like, right now, no matter how many times I press it, or no matter what key combination I use, it won't take me to the metro apps place or let me search (windows key + s) or anything. And right now, I can't even open up the on screen keyboard (yeseterday I had a problem with the windows key where it stopped working for like 2 minutes and then when it started working again, it acted as though the windows key was always being pressed. I tried to fix it with the on screen keyboard but it had no effect. I also tried pressing the key many many times. A restart was the only way to fix this problem; however, a few minutes after booting up I encountered the error again). It is so weird, I can open other programs that are pinned to my taskbar, but I can't seem to open the on-screen keyboard. What is up with my computer?

    Try uninstalling and then reinstalling the program.

    Try right-clicking on the actual Setup.exe and selecting the "Run As Administrator" option?  Do so even if your user is an Admin.

    That's actually an easy one to identify. It is a programming thing so I understand that. It says that he stored procedure which is named _BlinkSetVolume could not be located in the .dll which is compiled in C:\Usres[..]\stvoy.exe doesn't exist. Usually that means that the version of the dll in stvoy.exe is either the wrong version or it was corrupted. If you reinstall that it will fix it. Or repair if it has the option. There may be an update which may also fix it because they will rebuild all the DLLs in their .exe

    K, I'll be sure to do that. I really need to back up my computer soon, I've just been too lazy to get one of my external hard drives out.

    "Do you have any other issues?"

    What kind of a question is that!???? Of course I do!!! I'll give you this next one, although it may not be your area of expertise, check out this screenshot: 

    I'm sure you'll have a blast with this one! This used to work fine but now, for no particular reason, it just doesn't.
