Does this ever happen? Mine boots up fine but refuses to recognise a mouse ir keyboard. Any troubleshooting tips?

do you have the key for it? maybe the lock is broken... because you cant move the mouse or use the keyboard when its set to te "locked" position 😉

Locked is in the Right position, Middle is normal, Left is off.

Wow. On another note, would RAM from an LC I be compatible with it? What about a IIcx or an 8100/80av?

You need 30 pin SIMMs for memory and 64pin for VRAM (4x256K or 4x512K but only 1MB is used).

VRAM needs to be 80NS so the LC VRAM that is 100NS will not work.

This got me too... I just swapped in the 3rd keyboard & mouse set, thinking they were all broken or the ADB was maybe broken, LOL.
