That is exactly what I call "Method 1" does. The problem is, function D2h doesn't exist in all keyboard controllers, even modern ones. Nor is it always 100% reliable -- I have at least one computer where it is "flaky" (sometimes works OK and sometimes doesn't). On that particular computer, I have to use Method 3, since Method 2 doesn't work reliably, either. And, on top of that, I must load MS KEYB because the regular BIOS itself is incompatible (again, "flaky") with my Method 3. I cannot use MKEYB (or FD-KEYB) on that computer even if I would want to, because they use INT 15.4F and do not actually replace the entire BIOS INT 9 handler like MS KEYB does. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All of the data generated in your IT infrastructure is seriously valuable.
