[comp.sys.ibm.pc] More Problems with Packard Bell's LEGEND V 286

ries@venice.SEDD.TRW.COM (Marc Ries) (02/15/90)

Last November I purchased a Packard Bell Legend V 286.  In early,
January the machine died with a "keyboard failure, keyboard data line
failure".  A new motherboard seemed to solve the problem.  Now, about a
month later, the same thing has happened.

First, anybody know what a "keyboard failure, keyboard data line failure"
>really< means, and why.  This also seems to be more than a co-incidence,
to have this problem on two difference motherboards within a few months
time.

If it's any help, they (PB) also seem to be having a problem with their
PS/2 mouse port (consistenly) recognizing any mouse but the logitech.
The PS/2 port is next to they keyboard data line port.
