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 CN1
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.
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.
