I'm running Win7 Bootcamp on a 15" non-Retina MBP. I have a 27" Thunderbolt display with a Mac keyboard and mouse hung off a T-Bolt USB port. At the end of each day I put the MBP into hibernate and disconnect the all-in-one cable. In the morning I come in and reattach the MBP and fire it up. Some days the keyboard and mouse work right away and I can log in using them. Other days I have to use the MBP keyboard to log in, but then the keyboard and mouse work fine. Then there are days like today, where it takes several reboots and moving the keyboard's USB cable around to different USB ports until it finally works. I don't think it's a Windows thing because I've had this happen booting to OSX. Plus all the signal is traveling through the T-Bolt cable. This seems like a problem with the Thunderbolt USB itself.
Has anyone else heard of or seen this happen? I suppose the next step is to get a Thunderbolt cable and try bypassing the all-in-one to see if that solves the issue. Not too pleased with this 2-month old $1000 monitor at this point, though. Like having your new BMW break down on the way home from the showroom.
