The default of <Enabled> allows the system detecting a PS/2 mouse on boot. If detected, IRQ12 will be used for
the PS/2 mouse. IRQ12 will be reserved for expansion cards and therefore the PS/2 mouse will not function.

adapter cable is mounted on a bracket and is included in your AR-B1579 package. The connector for the PS/2
mouse is a Mini-DIN 6-pin connector. Pin assignments for the PS/2 port connector are as follows:
