Hi,
If you see the devices error message when checking the keyboard or mouse, you could either update your existing driver, or uninstall it and reinstall that driver and then check whether the device is working or not.
You can open Device Manager > right-click on the driver > select Update driver or Uninstall device. Following that, follow the screen options to get things done. If you have uninstalled the driver, restart your computer, connect the device and select Scan for hardware changes. You will get this option under Device Manager > Action.
According to your description, DCOM Event ID 10016 are the most common of these and they do not mean anything is wrong with your device, and there is nothing you can do to stop these events being generated.

Hope above information can help you.
