Keyboard Change
Hi all,
I would like to be able to just plug in a USB keyboard that I have without having to use a PS/2 adapter. (The adapter is now slack and falls out easily)The problem is that when I restart the computer after attaching this USB keyboard directly using a USB port (and not the "keyboard port" )the machine doesn't see it. I get an error message at startup. How can I get around this?

Re: Keyboard Change
Go into the computer's bios. Enable legacy USB devices.

Re: Keyboard Change
Thanks for the quick response.
I've got "USB Keyboard Support [Enabled] and Onchip USB [Enabled]. I don't see "legacy USB devices".

Re: Keyboard Change
Make sure the mouse is plugged into the USB port that is designated for the
mouse. This will be physically located on the M/B. Look at the top of the port area on the rear of the case. -- Regards, Richard Urban Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User Quote from George Ankner: If you knew as much as you think you know, You would realize that you don't know what you thought you knew!
