PS/2 Mouse Enable

On systems that support a PS/2 style mouse, this setting enables or disables this port. If you are using the port you should enable this, otherwise you should disable it so that the interrupt reserved for the PS/2 mouse (IRQ12) can be used for another purpose. Some systems have an "Auto" setting for this parameter, which is really ideal, since it will only enable PS/2 support if you actually have one connected.
