I have an old Shuttle Hot 555a mother board (circa 1997) with a pentium 200mmx. I can easily get the system to boot of the network with defaults. But I get neither keyboard nor mouse but the logon screen comes up just fine.
The booger of it all is that the keyboard is not truly PS/2 type but a PS/2 keyboard going through an 9pin Mini-Din to 5pin Din adapter to connect to the big, fat AT connector on the mother board. The mouse is also not a PS/2 in the truest sense also but is a PS/2 mouse connected to COM1 port by way of a PS/2 to DB9 adapter-looks like a tiny space ship.
The setup works fine when I boot into Windows 2000.
There is a computer chop shop near my house which has a supply of old pre PII systems that I would like to exploit. P-Pros CPUs for $20-cpu only.
Thanks in advance.
Ish.
