I have been cut off from the net for a while so I havn't been able to pursue this problem. I posted a question about using a Z-183 with an external keyboard about a month ago. Thanx to all that responded. However I do know about the XT - AT switch under the ZDS logo on the 101 keyboards which was the most common suggestion. The ROM BIOS version of this particular 183 is 2.9D. What I am wondering is if a BIOS upgrade will do the trick for me. Or is there a keyboard controller upgrade possibly? Any help will be appreciated. Even though we are a ZDS service center I can't get anywhere with ZDS. My calls to the Customer Response Center so-called 'hotline' have produced no information. The tech I talked to there claimed it could not be done. I however have E-mail from many folks who say they are, even as we speak, typing away on their Z-183's with full- sized keyboards. So I know it can be done. Again - any and all help will be appreciated. I can be reached at kent@sun.ufnet.ufl.edu or kent@digital.ufl.edu. Thanx in advance. -- Kent Phelps | Internet: kent@sun.ufnet.ufl.edu University of Florida | UUCP: ... ???? Digital Design Facility| Phone: 904-392-2464
