Enabling PS2 Ports (ASUS H97 Plus)
---------
PS2
---------
While this MOBO has PS2 ports I could never get them to work.
In re-reviewing the MOBO docs for the BIOS, I find "PS2 Keyboard and Mouse Support" is
listed under "Boot Menu > Fast Boot".
However Fast Boot is not available unless one has UEFI and also a GPT primary partition.
Seems odd that PS2 would be disabled for Legacy.
Questions:
1) Anyone know if I've got this Wrong?
2) It this now common MOBO practice, any reason why?

Microsoft Service for PS2
------------------------
My understanding is that "i8042prt.sys" is the PS2 service.
It is NOT included in my list of services.
However, it does exist in the registry for services. Start = 3.
Questions:
1) Is this do to the fact that it requires UEFI ?
2) If I set Start = 1 in the registry will this allow it to work?
