Windows is great because if you plug your mouse into one USB port then maybe you move the mouse to another, it completely forgets that mouse ever existed and is like “setting up device!”
No it wasn’t just win95 but also IBM DOS and BIOS.
Keyboard not found, press F2 to continue asks the users to either plug in a keyboard and the press F2 on that one to continue or press F2 on an unrecognised keyboard so that the OS could pick it up.
It would then reload the driver’s for the PS/2 keyboard and continue as normal.
well technically… USB initialization isn’t that simple, when you change which port it’s plugged into, it’s numerated under that new memory space, so from the computers perspective, it’s a different number, it’s a different device.

Bro, you know what this is.
It sure is great. If I remember correctly, there was a Windows 95 error saying “keyboard not found, press F2 to continue.”

Thanks for the explanation!
It still does look funny though.
