Why is my input device changing rapidly?

Whenever I am in the options menu trying to adjust my options (I haven't gone in-game yet), my input device changes rapidly from my keyboard/mouse to my controller and the cursor goes up/left randomly (making it hard to adjust my options). I have pulled out the battery pack on my controller, nothing changes, same goes for my wireless adapter when I unplug it. A different wireless 360 changed nothing too. Restarting also didn't do anything. The issue also happens with Mortal Kombat X,What should I do?

If none of the commented solutions worked, your computer might be the problem.

Your hard drive could be corrupted, your operating system could be out of date, your USB port could be failing to register that there is something in it because it could be dirty or malfunctional, you may have to consider getting a wired controller, you may (at the very least) need a new wireless adapter, or the problem could possibly be with the gaming keyboard.

Basically, if none of these works, you'll need a new computer or something along those lines.
