I keep a 20 year old PS/2 keyboard around specifically for that rare event I need to edit my bios settings. My mobo doesn’t enable usb until half a second after it stops listening for input because who uses usb keyboards, anyway?

and the future started 20 years ago

usb is just a fad

ps/2 is the future

    Would a ps2 to USB converter properly work?

    What's the mobo? I feel it should have a setting for when to init the USB.

    Maybe some ports get initialised sooner?

    Ps/2 has NKRO as a fucking default while usb nopes our when you press three buttons at the same time. But at least I can plug it in without restarting the whole computer, yaaaay

    @uyouthe Many modern USB keyboards have NKRO too, although I fail to see where more than 4 or 5 keys held down at the same time would be useful, even in gaming.

    @kamen I know. I’m talking about NKRO by default. You don’t even have to think about it, you buy any keyboard and NKRO is there
