Problems solved by technology

However, in this way, even if the difference between the two models is only the size of the keyboard, their motherboards cannot be used universally.
Therefore, for manufacturers, not only is the research and development process inconvenient, but also increases maintenance troubles

Embodiment Construction

[0018] In current notebook computer models, motherboards of notebook computers using keyboards of different sizes cannot be shared. Therefore, the present invention proposes a method for setting an input device, so that different types of input devices can share the same type of motherboard. In order to make the content of the present invention clearer, the following specific examples are given as examples in which the present invention can actually be implemented.

[0019] figure 1 It is a flowchart of a method for setting an input device according to an embodiment of the present invention. Please refer to figure 1 , in step S105, the computer system first reads out the specific value. Furthermore, when the computer system is turned on, the basic input output system (BIOS) will be started first to execute the initialization process. Therefore, in this embodiment, after the computer system executes the BIOS, a specific value is read from a specific area in the storage unit...

Abstract

The invention discloses a method for setting an input device, which comprises the following steps of: firstly, reading a specific value from a storage unit, wherein the specific value is established according to an input device connected with a computer system; secondly, selecting corresponding mapping data according to the specific value; and thirdly, converting a first code received by the input device into a second code which can be distinguished by the computer system according to the mapping data so that the computer system carries out a corresponding action according to the second code. Accordingly, the input devices in different varieties can be used without changing the hardware environment.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a method for setting peripheral devices of a computer system, and in particular to a method for setting input devices. Background technique [0002] With the advancement of technology, the use of notebook computers has become quite common and has become an indispensable equipment in the life and work of modern people. Therefore, the functionality and convenience of using the notebook computer are closely related to the user's work efficiency or life and entertainment. [0003] In order to cater to different user groups, notebook computers have also developed specifications of various sizes. And because the model size of the notebook computer is different, the specification of the keyboard used therein will also be different. Traditionally, a pin (such as an ID PIN) is used on the motherboard to identify the size of the connected keyboard. However, in this way, even if the difference between the two models is only the...
