| 1366481 | 2014-01-31 06:57:00 | Just curious about this. Still using a 5yr old PC, do modern motherboards still have PS/2 ports and if not do USB ports gets emulated so that they still work in BIOS and with an old boot disk/CD? Cheers. |

As for BIOS support, some newer ps/2 keyboards have set modes designed to make them work properly in the bios. Once again enthusiast level hardware is more likely to have onboard support for PS/2 keyboards in the BIOS. | icow (15313) | ||
