Hyper-V guest OS - Mouse/Keyboard (Integration Services) are "broken"
Hello,
after a regular reboot of the Windows Server 2012 guest VM I am no longer able to insert any Mouse or Keyboard input into the VM, using the HyperV-Manager (tried from Win7 and WinSrv2012).
Also I cannot connect via RDP to the guest - I enter my credentials, the connection window builds up but stays black. After a timeout the windows closes again.
Fortunately I can access the server using a remote control software. In Device Manager I can see errors with mouse and keyboard.
I cannot "update" the drivers but I also cannot reinstall the integration services (Message "...version...is already installed on this machine").
All services on this server are running fine, but I cannot "access" it any regular way, not even using the hardware on the VM host.
How can I reload the drivers for mouse/keyboard or for the integration services?

In your remote session Uninstall them in Device Manager then reboot.
