[Keyboard 98]: Use the power-on button on the “Keyboard 98” compatible keyboard
to power on the system.
NOTE:
The mouse wake up function can only be used with the PS/2 mouse, not with
the COM port or USB type. Some PS/2 mice cannot wake up the system because of
compatible problems. If the specs of your keyboard are too old, it may fail to power
on.

NOTE:
Do not forget your password, or you will have to clear the CMOS and reset
all parameters in order to utilize this function again.

address.
