On my Job I regularly have to install Windows PCs and sometimes even install the USB Drivers for Mouse and Keyboard to work. Why dont I have to do that on Linux ever? Seems weird not to have them installed on Windows.

    sometimes even install the USB Drivers for Mouse and Keyboard to work.

    There should be an option in the bios to avoid that if you’re interested.

    There should be something along the lines of “USB Legacy Support” if you set that to enabled, not auto this should pretend that the keyboard and mouse are ps/2 devices that would work without extra drivers.

    Other possible names.

        USB Legacy Support

    USB Emulation

    USB Device Legacy Support

    USB BIOS Supported Devices
