Hello!

Does anyone know why my PS/2 mice, with its USB adapter (Logitech and
eMachine), like to pause on my new EVGA X58 SLI (132-BL-E758; BIOS date
5/11/2010; v6.00 PG; release number IX58SZ64) motherboard in 32-bit
Windows? I never had this problem with my other older motherboards with
pure PS/2 connections, but this new motherboard only has a PS/2 keyboard
port so I was forced to use a USB adapter for the mouse. The reason for
a PS/2 mouse is because I use a KVM to share my monitor, mouse, and
keyboard. I already eliminated the cables and KVM switch box to see
where the pauses are coming from. They're not from KVM and its cables. :(

My PS/2 mice likes to pause in 32-bit Windows. Rear ports seems to pause
way more than the front. The pauses can cause randomly and every few
seconds. I also tried different adapter cables beside different PS/2
mice. I can reproduce this in both 32-bit Windows XP Pro. SP3 (safe mode
too) and 7 PE liveCD.

I was not able to reproduce it with a KNOPPIX v6.4.4 liveCD, but I did
notice these USB errors in dmesg command:

Does Windows not reset USB device or something? I also tried Logitech
Mouseware, but that didn't seem to help either.

Thank you in advance. :)

I forgot to mention eMachine mouse was a ball type and the Logitech was
an optical laser type. They didn't make any differencs.

Hello!
Does anyone know why my PS/2 mice, with its USB adapter (Logitech and
eMachine), like to pause on my new EVGA X58 SLI (132-BL-E758; BIOS date
5/11/2010; v6.00 PG; release number IX58SZ64) motherboard in 32-bit
Windows? I never had this problem with my other older motherboards with
pure PS/2 connections, but this new motherboard only has a PS/2 keyboard
port so I was forced to use a USB adapter for the mouse. The reason for
a PS/2 mouse is because I use a KVM to share my monitor, mouse, and
keyboard. I already eliminated the cables and KVM switch box to see
where the pauses are coming from. They're not from KVM and its cables. :(
My PS/2 mice likes to pause in 32-bit Windows. Rear ports seems to pause
way more than the front. The pauses can cause randomly and every few
seconds. I also tried different adapter cables beside different PS/2
mice. I can reproduce this in both 32-bit Windows XP Pro. SP3 (safe mode
too) and 7 PE liveCD.
I was not able to reproduce it with a KNOPPIX v6.4.4 liveCD, but I did

Does Windows not reset USB device or something? I also tried Logitech
Mouseware, but that didn't seem to help either.
Thank you in advance. :)

Someone suggested me to try hooking both mouse and keyboard to the
PS/2+USB adapter splitter. It was working for about 30 minutes and then
both devices started pausing. When I type on my PS/2 keyboard and pauses
occur, it either doesn't register my keys or gets stuccccccccccccccck
like that. :(

I forgot to mention eMachine mouse was a ball type and the Logitech was
an optical laser type. They didn't make any differencs.

Hello!
Does anyone know why my PS/2 mice, with its USB adapter (Logitech and
eMachine), like to pause on my new EVGA X58 SLI (132-BL-E758; BIOS date
5/11/2010; v6.00 PG; release number IX58SZ64) motherboard in 32-bit
Windows? I never had this problem with my other older motherboards with
pure PS/2 connections, but this new motherboard only has a PS/2 keyboard
port so I was forced to use a USB adapter for the mouse. The reason for
a PS/2 mouse is because I use a KVM to share my monitor, mouse, and
keyboard. I already eliminated the cables and KVM switch box to see
where the pauses are coming from. They're not from KVM and its cables. :(
My PS/2 mice likes to pause in 32-bit Windows. Rear ports seems to pause
way more than the front. The pauses can cause randomly and every few
seconds. I also tried different adapter cables beside different PS/2
mice. I can reproduce this in both 32-bit Windows XP Pro. SP3 (safe mode
too) and 7 PE liveCD.
I was not able to reproduce it with a KNOPPIX v6.4.4 liveCD, but I did

Someone suggested me to try hooking both mouse and keyboard to the
PS/2+USB adapter splitter. It was working for about 30 minutes and then
both devices started pausing. When I type on my PS/2 keyboard and pauses
occur, it either doesn't register my keys or gets stuccccccccccccccck
like that. :(

Is this an adapter of some sort, on the KVM ?

Are you referring to the PS/2 plus dual USB stack on the back of the computer ?

Or do you own one of these ?

http://images17.newegg.com/is/image/newegg/12-119-237-S02?$S640W$

*******

If it's the latter kind of device, this is the chip inside the "blob"
in the center of the cable.

http://www.chesen.com.tw/p3-products-CSC0101A.asp

"The CEC CSC0101A is an integral micro-controller for converting
PS/2 interface signal to USB applications, which includes 8 bits
high performance micro-controller core, combined USB1.1 low-speed
interface and dual PS/2 handler module."

That product has firmware inside. Either that chip, or one similar in
design, had some kind of firmware bug when it came out. It would "go nuts"
after about ten minutes. That kinda sounds like your symptoms. On later
devices, I stopped seeing complaints.

Loading Image...

The chip draws 20mA, so should even work with a USB hub. The keyboard
or mouse plugged into it, would increase the load. So you'd have to
sum the three of them, to see if they exceeded the power limits
of the USB port used. If a 100mA keyboard, a 100mA mouse, and the
20ma chip drew power from a USB port, you'd need a 500mA port on the
back of the computer for that. A bus powered USB hub port (with 100mA
limit) would not be enough for it.

http://www.chesen.com.tw/download/pc/CSC0101A/R_CSC0101A_160.rar (PDF inside)

Since it has a processor inside, and uses its own internal firmware,
that can help explain why it can go nuts (if badly designed). The
implication is the device doesn't have a fixed function as such,
and relies on its own internal program running in the 6502, to
transfer bytes from the PS/2 interface, into USB packets.

No. I tried without KVMs and their cables, and was still able to
reproduce the symptoms/problems/.

What is a dual USB stack? I am just using a basic USB+PS/2 adapter cable.

Yes, I have that splitter type and without a splitter type (just for
mice -- green color PS/2 end). Both have the same problems.

So, are there any USB+PS/2 adapters that would work for my situation?
How come KNOPPIX v6.4.4 didn't have these pauses even though its dmesg
show USB messages ("usb 7-1: reset low speed USB device using uhci_hcd

The message tells you something is wrong. As far as I know, bus resets
are part of discovering new hardware. And that can happen, if a device
"disappears" from the bus and then comes back again. I proposed a
Power Management event as a cause for that, which you eliminated.
The device itself (like a Chesen chip) might do that on its own
(internal reset).

Maybe Linux takes a shortcut on the reset, using existing state information,
and isn't really doing very much, protocol wise ? It could be, that in
Windows they do a complete device reset, and all state is lost. You'd
need something like a USB protocol analyzer to guess at this.

As far as I know, your ICH10R has a conventional USB implementation.
It should behave like the chips before it.

Yeah, I told my internal hubs to always be powered on (don't have any
external hubs). I still get pauses. :(

Where would I get one of those? Is it software or hardware?

The active PS/2 to USB adapter, uses an internal 8 bit processor
and 8KB of firmware.

Which means, here is room for firmware bugs. And the firmware is likely
masked ROM. It can't be changed, once you've bought the chip.
As the revision of firmware changes (manufacturer makes improvements),
the behavior of the adapter could change. You'd only get those
improvements by buying a new one. And without release notes,
tracking what improvements were made, or bugs fixed, we aren't
in a position to say anything about an active adapter.

Devices with masked ROM can be relatively cheap to make. That's how
they can sell the active adapter for $5 to $10. If they had to support
an EEPROM, make the device reprogrammable, the cost would go up.

I would test your adapter on another computer, and see if there
are still bus resets coming from the interaction of the adapter
with the computer.

*******

USB bus protocol analysers are generally more expensive than a
consumer could afford. And pretty pointless if they don't find
anything. Only a USB hardware developer could justify owning
one, like the folks at Chesen.

No problems as of yesterday's test. PS/2+USB splitter adapters should be
fine.

Yep, something is screwy with these USB ports on my motherboard with
PS/2 adapters... Overnight, I used an Ubuntu v11.04 desktop liveCD and
did get a frozen mouse that required a disconnection and reconnection:

Maybe this/my motherboard hates these splitter PS/2 adatters? :(

Your motherboard comes in a couple models, but it's possible the same
manual covers the A1 and TR versions.

On page 49, you can try disabling

"USB Keyboard Function [Disable]
USB Mouse Function [Disable]

Use this function to enable or disable support under DOS."

Some of those functions are documented here. It's possible for
the BIOS in SMM/SMI mode, to pull information from USB devices,
and stuff that info into PS/2 space. I doubt you need that right now.

When you're in Windows, fire up Device Manager (devmgmt.msc) and
look at the USB entries. For example, your USB Root Hubs may have:

"Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power."

Disable that, so that the USB Root Hub remains powered consistently.

I hope that's enough to sort the Windows problem.

In some cases, a BIOS update may be needed to fix things like that.

I took a look at the release notes, but don't see an item there
that suggests your problem is fixed via BIOS update. At this point,
all I suggest you do, is look at the release notes for hints.

EVGA may also have a forum, and you can try looking there.

I have a Logitech mouse (M-BQ85)

Loading Image...

and it comes with a turquoise colored adapter. The adapter is passive,
and has a PS/2 male end (for the computer) and a USB female end (for the
mouse). The mouse comes with a USB connector on the end. But if you
fit the turquoise colored adapter, the mouse then has a PS/2 end, and
that plugs into a PS/2 equipped computer. I used to use the turquoise
adapter with my older computers, because they had PS/2 mouse ports.
My latest computer is like your machine - there is a PS/2 keyboard port,
but no mouse port. Therefore, I had to remove the adapter, and now the
mouse uses its (native) USB connector instead.

You've been connecting your mouse via USB, so it's effectively a USB mouse,
as far as the technical details of this problem are concerned.

The turquoise adapter is passive. There is no chip inside. The mouse in
fact, is dual protocol. It senses the voltages on the various wires,
and figures out whether it is installed on a PS/2 port (via adapter) or
on a USB port (no adapter). This adapter won't work, if the mouse is
not inherently dual protocol - if the mouse came with such an adapter,
that is proof it is dual protocol. Otherwise, I doubt the instructions
in this article would work, if you used a mouse which was USB only.

http://www.ehow.com/how_6898911_run-mouse-through-ps2-port.html

This is an example of an "active" adapter. The "blob" contains a single
chip, which contains an actual 8 bit microcontroller and firmware. It
converts PS/2 protocol input, into USB packets. Usage of this device,
will not change your symptoms one bit, so don't bother. Older versions
of this design used to freeze after ten minutes usage, but that
was a firmware issue. As far as I know, they fixed that. But even if
this thing is working, it's not going to change your "USB bus disconnect"
symptoms.

It's not clear to me, how you're going to connect mixed generations
of computers to your KVM. Not many KVMs support both PS/2 and USB
or any combination thereof. If all the KVM supports is PS/2,
then you're not going to be able to use that with your X58 (missing mouse port),
unless you use an active adapter. The active adapter would solve the
connection problem, but would not necessarily change the symptoms
of your bus disconnect. But using the active adapter, may make it
possible to wire up the KVM again.

So first:

1) Solve the bus disconnect problem.

2) Consider an active adapter as a work-around for the shortcomings
of your average KVM. (There is no reason to believe, combining a
KVM with an active adapter is going to work - because they both
are playing around with the interface, and these technologies
aren't exactly "transparent". They both may involve hacks of
various sorts. If such a combination actually worked, I'd consider
it a miracle. It's really a "$5 gamble", not a sure thing.)

I tried that and it didn't help. I even tried disabling controllers, but
disabling 1.0 resulted losing all of my USB. :D So I just disabled 2.0
controller and still same problems. I also tried changing USB speeds in
CMOS. Basically I changed all values to their opposites. Same problem. Bleh!

OK, they were all enabled so I disabled all eight of them. I didn't see
any power options for Intel ICH10 Family USB Host controllers. However,
I did see each one using 10% of the bandwidth used. Is that OK? But then
I don't see options to change those values. Also, do I have to reboot?
Windows XP didn't tell me.

Also, doesn't XP's safe mode and Windows 7 PE have these always powered
on? I don't think they even do power savings at all.

Yeah, I posted my issue in my old forum thread:

So PS/2 mice connected to USB adapters is considered a USB device?
Interesting. Both basic mice have green PS/2 connectors (male IIRC).

I also tried old Logitech's Mouseware from Logitech's web site which did
not help.

Well, I reproduced the pause problems without KVMs and cables. So that's
a good start to narrow down the sources. It seems like my motherboard
doesn't like USB+PS/2 adapters. :(

Yeah. I wonder why Linux/KNOPPIX liveCD's session didn't pause, but
still show messages about USB connections in its dmesg. I think I will
try an Ubuntu liveCD next.

Someone suggested me to try hooking both PS/2 mouse and keyboard to the
PS/2+USB adapter splitter. It was working for about 30 minutes and then
both devices started pausing. When I type on my PS/2 keyboard and pauses
occur, it either doesn't register my keys or gets stuccccccccccccccck
like that. :(
