Hi

I have two machines based on the Intel DK440LX Motherboard.

They are both Running Windows NT Server 4.0.

The problem is that unless there is a PS/2 mouse attached the keyboard does
not work after the bootup process switches to NT's video mode (the blue
screen where it lists your version and number of processors).

This means that you cannot press Ctrl-Alt-Del to login.

Looking at the devices in NT the PS/2 mouse and keyboard seem to be one
device.

All of this would not really be a problem except that the two machines are
to be run as servers in a server room running through a switch box, which
has only has connectors for a serial mouse.

Does anyone have any ideas at all?

Thanks
Jake
