Hi,

I just migrated a physical win 2012 server to a Vm in the last release of Proxmox. It works well, and I followed the migration guide available here with the Vmware converter: https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Migrat...o_Proxmox_VE_.28KVM.29_using_VMware_Converter

My only problem is the keyboard. I'm using the visual keyboard from Windows to be able to manage the host in the Vm, as the qemu keyboard doesn't work. I saw in the device manager of Windows an exclamation on the Ps/2 keyboard. I tried to uninstall/install, nothing to do, the status of it remains the same. I also followed this tip, but it didn't help: http://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Guest_Keyboard_Problems

Any idea on how to resolve this issue?
Thx for your help.

Alright, I figured it out: I removed all extra drivers I had for material from the physical version of the host...
And now the keyboard works perfectly!
