Hi, I see your post late. PS2 keyboard/mouse HW interface is included in the Vortex86EX CPU, but Zero and One don't use the PS2 interface. Instead, Zero and One use USB keyboard/mouse, which are both supported by BIOS.

PS2 keyboard/mouse interface can be wired to I/O pins of both Zero and One by writing a DOS program (or an Arduino sketch) to reconfigure the crossbar setting of Vortex86EX.
