Hi,

Just a though but a USB mouse/keyboard ussage would be a great help.

Thanks

Hi,

Mouse is already present.
Keyboard support can't emulate a real keyboard, then, the BIOS failing if a Keyboard is not present will still fail.

I am also interested in something like this. Couldn't a dongle be used to allow the PicoMem to directly connect to the AT/XT keyboard port, then when the system polls for a keyboard, intercept and return the correct response for the POST process to continue? This is assuming the only real issue is the POST of course.

Hi,

There is already something like this, like HIDMan:

I would not like to over complexify the PicoMEM.
The goal is to try to do whatever is possible via ISA.
