I tried that! I was using a USB keyboard so I just figured the damn

PS2 connected and had a go at that. No go. Even worse, windows
didn't see the PS2 keyboard. Well, it saw it but would not load a
driver for it.
So I had no kb inside windows either. Luckily, in windows one can do
a lot with just a mouse.
If Windows isn't seeing the PS2 keyboard, then it sounds to me like
you have a PS2 port problem - it's not in the wrong port is it? No
bent pins?
Well, it has a problem with the PS2 keyboard, not that it didn't see it.
I'm sure I had the right port.
I've been goofing with this most of the day. I'm thinking about
dumping all of these WinPCs and moving to one MAC (well, two, desktop
/ laptop).
Because of a BIOS problem? I would assume the Intel-based Macs also
use a BIOS which would be very similar to an AMD/Intel Windows box.
Not really. I'm just frustrated with all my systems going bonkers...this
and that not working, needing to reformat/reload....when you have 1, 2,
3, 4, 5, 6 computers.....
