IPAC2 Problem, help!!
ZEN:
I am going to try to re-install w2k, or does this IPAC2 have issues with WIN2K?
ZEN:
I re-installed win 2K and service packs, no change same issues. I took the cp to my win XP machine, it did not recognize it either, no keyboard function, and after depressing any button, the mouse slowed considerably like it was defragging the drive. The test occured okay, which tells me no shorts. The IPAC could and should interface with your computer perfectly through the passthrough with no wires attached even, thus, this tells me that the problem might logically be in the ps/2 passthrough socket...well, at least this noobs interpretations...... :timebomb:

I initially hooked up my ipac2 to the ps2 port just because the old ps2 cable was all ready routed to my CP. When I tried uploading new key assignments to it, the unit timed out.. even after rebooting. I then hooked it up via the USB cable that came with it, windows installed some driver.. and it worked perfectly. I have never had anything Ipac related installed on my machine prior. Mine's working fine, just reporting what sounds semi similar.

Are you using a USB-to-PS2 adapter between the keyboard and I-Pac? That caused problems for me.
