Smokeless Joe Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Has anyone been able to successfully use a NETUSBee device with a USB keyboard? I’m looking to replace the keyboard on my MSTE with something that can talk to a KVM. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 Not yet, but can give it a try tomorrow, only used Memory Stick, Mouse and network so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari8guy Posted April 8, 2022 Share Posted April 8, 2022 I have. It works well but you have to load the drivers first so compatibility with games is not great. For applications it’s good. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I tried today, the USB driver detected the keyboard with the right name and model but was greyed out, no response from keyboard in programs (not games). It was a Logitech gaming keyboard, will try a small generic one I have later Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TGB1718 Posted April 9, 2022 Share Posted April 9, 2022 I tried a different keyboard which was recognised and did work, however I could not access my USB drives anymore, also USBTOOL.ACC did not load off the floppy during the boot. During the boot all devices connected to the USB port were seen correctly, all devices are connected to a powered hub, so it's not a lack of power. The documents say there is no specific order for the drivers in the auto folder only USB.PRG first Drivers next NETUSBEE.PRG last Remove the keyboard driver and everything else is back to normal, very strange.

Not sure if there is a resolution to it. It doesn’t affect me as I don’t use usb drives, I use an UltraSatan for my HD. You’re booting from floppy and then using thumb drives for mass storage?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Currently, yes, I think my "real" hard drive is on it's last legs, so not using it so much these days until I can maybe buy an Ultra Satan, did buy a GOEX, but turned out to be a bit of a turkey, just won't work on either my STM or STE, so hoping my floppy drives will last as they are originals from when I bought my STM bitd.

Smokeless Joe Posted April 11, 2022 Author Share Posted April 11, 2022 Thanks for all the replies! Not having the keyboard work in games is a downside, but it seems like a useful device otherwise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
