"Legacy USB" is generally only for "HID Boot Protocol" devices (or something like that; the exact name escapes me). That means only USB keyboards and mice.


The basic idea is that the BIOS lets you use a USB kbd/mouse as though they were attached to the PS/2 ports. The BIOS is not supposed to hold onto the peripherals forever, but that seems to be a common problem.
