Hi Marcos,

It is unusual that the BIOS did not already do the keyboard for you.

Did you try FDAPM ADV:REG instead of FDAPM APMDOS? That makes the
power saving a bit less heavy and might reduce some side effects.

Of course we cannot do that because we have no license for that.
Can you be more specific? Are there any particular problems with
FreeDOS KEYB? Are you using the current version? I myself like
MKEYB by Tom Ehlert - fewer layouts and features but very small.

If you have MS DOS keyb, you probably have a MS DOS license: The
USB driver by Bret would also work there, I think. However MS DOS
has not had any updates for ca 15 years, many parts are outdated.

Regards, Eric
