A friend of mine has 2 drives installed.
drive 1 is his stuff and windows xp
drive 2 is his wifes stuff and xp as well(separate install)
everything has been fine untill now (he would select drive with arrow key on bootup)
now he has bought a USB keyboard and it will not work until winders loads.
we have enabled the
USB Device Legacy Support in bios-----
(Set to All Device if you need to use any USB device in the operating system
that does not support or have any USB driver installed, such as DOS and SCO
Unix. Set to No Mice only if you want to use any USB device other than the
USB mouse.)
the ports do work once he is in Windows but it still wont work during bootup
using a ps/2 connector wont do it either-- it wont even work in windows with that
so -- is there a way of loading a mouse driver soon enough(non USB) to use the mouse at the operating system/drive selection screen?
like modifying the boot ini or something like that?
or would there be a way of letting it boot into the default drive and then causing it to resart into the second(this doesn't seem likely and would be kinda convoluted so not so desirable)
hes willing to buy another (ps/2 type keyboard) but I kinda want the solution just because I spent so long on the phone with him trying to get the darn thing to work. (its like a mission for me now)
thanks for any help
