EGC Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 I installed it succesfully under VMWare , but when i booted into the system (still in VMWare) the mouse cannot be recognized ... my PS/2 keyboard works however... I then burnt the image to a dvd, boot my machine from that dvd and try to re-install, this time the mouse cant even be recognized under the install mode... the keyboard (PS/2) is still recognized ... seems like there's no driver for my board's usb controller? My Spec is : AMD64 3000 + Venice (SEE3) on Gigabyte K8T890 (VIA) board. (ATI X700Pro IDE 160G HD) my MOUSE is the MICROSOFT USB SHARK... should be a pretty standard mouse .... please help..

rohde Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Generally OS X isn't happy when you mix USB and PS/2 input devices (on Hackintoshes at least). Set both to PS/2 (or USB).

EGC Posted March 12, 2006 Author Share Posted March 12, 2006 thank you... do you think 2 usb's better or 2 ps/2's better? coz im goint to get either one tomorrow and don't want to do it again.. one question is, my motherboard wont allow be to boot if i unplug my ps/2 keyboard at the moment, if i use a usb keyboard, can my motherboard recognize that? thans Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/11829-help-needed-10445-usb-mouse-not-recognized-on-k8t890-motherboard/#findComment-74201 Share on other sites More sharing options...
macgirl Posted March 13, 2006 Share Posted March 13, 2006 If you populate both PS2 ports you can use any USB mouse or KB, yeah it's weird but works.
