If your PS/2 keyboard or mouse locks up, you may be able to re-establish

between the server and the DSR, functionality is restored to the user.

NOTE: This function is for Microsoft Windows-based computers only. Resetting the PS/2 on a
computer running any other operating system may require that you reboot that computer.
