Q: How to use Standard PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse?
A:
Users may always adopt PS/2 keyboard and mouse over the J28 jumper interface
(through bracket which supports PS/2 function) on ROBO-8716VG2A. (Figure 5-
10)
Figure 5-10
However, it is also fine to adopt a standard keyboard over the standard
keyboard connector on Backplane, if provided. In this way, users need to adopt a
5-pin keyboard connection cable to line-up, external keyboard interface, J32 on
ROBO-8716VG2A with the 5-pin keyboard connector on Backplane.
Q: OK. I have finished hardware installation, but I got nothing when I power on
the system. Why?
A:
There are thousands of different reasons to get this power on failure.
1. Check ROBO-8716VG2A jumper, JP1. Otherwise, incorrect power setting will
not allow you to power on the system.
2. Double check if every connector is attached with the correct cable.
3. If you have changed processor with different system clock, please move JP3
(CMOS clear Jumper) to 2-3, power on the system to clear CMOS (move
on/off switch from off to on for AT mode, or toggle the switch for ATX
mode), power off the system, move JP3 back to 1-2, and power on again. This
way to process the action for “Clear the CMOS Setting”.
Q: I connect two IDE devices over one IDE flat cable, but the system either does
not start, or just hangs from time to time. Why?
A:
Make sure that you have configured the two IDE devices as a master and a slave,
respectively.
