| 148170 | 2003-05-28 16:15:00 | I got this "keyboard Power On" option in the BIOS Does this mean i can turn the PC on by using the keyboard? Cheers |

| 148172 | 2003-05-29 01:04:00 | Well my keyboard is PS2 It doesnt have a power Button. In the BIOS it gives option of changing the power key to something else. Like to some other key on keyboard. I tried it, does not work. Maybe it has to do something with power supply. |
