server supports USB devices, including, but not limited to: 

• 
• 
• 
• 

CD-ROM drives 

Diskette drives 

Keyboard 

Mouse 

For other operating systems, the ROM provides USB support for keyboard and 
mouse, but not for CD-ROM or diskette drives. 

ROM Legacy USB support is available during POST, DOS, and while the operating 
system is running. The ROM does not support hot-plug events for the USB keyboard 
or USB mouse at any time. The maximum device support is two USB keyboards, two 
USB mouse devices, and one layer of hubs. 

 

IMPORTANT:

  The ProLiant Essentials Foundation Pack Windows 95 environment does not 

support a USB mouse. During the ProLiant Essentials process, you must use a legacy PS/2 
mouse. 

For a list of operating systems supported by the ProLiant DL580 Generation 2 server, 
refer to the operating system support matrix on the product website at 

www.hp.com
