2.9.1 PS/2 Mouse and PS/2 Keyboard Ports
PS/2 Mouse
PS/2 Keyboard
The system board is equipped with an onboard PS/2 mouse
(Green) and PS/2 keyboard (Purple) ports - both at location J2 of
the ATX double deck ports of the system board. The PS/2 mouse
port uses IRQ12. If a mouse is not connected to this port, the
system will reserve IRQ12 for other expansion cards.
The Wake-On-Keyboard/Wake-On-Mouse function allows you to use
the keyboard or PS/2 mouse to power-on the system. Refer to
Jumper Settings for Wake-On-Keyboard/Wake-On-Mouse in
chapter 2 and Keyboard/Mouse Power On in the Integrated
Peripherals section in chapter 3 for more information.
Warning:
Make sure to turn off your computer prior to connecting or
disconnecting a mouse or keyboard. Failure to do so may
damage the system board.
