Greetings,
     Sorry, this may seem dumb, but does this Dell keyboard have USB inputs? Like some keyboards you may plug a mouse into etc. I would plan to use that as a power source for a DIY project. I don't have that specific keyboard around atm though and can't find an image.

         Thanks,

I'm 100% sure that keyboard doesn't have USB inputs.
If it has to be a Dell keyboard, the SK-8135 has 2 USB ports on the back.

I see what you mean with the other model of keyboard and the inputs. I deal with these shitty Dell pre-builts all day at work. I shit you not, some can take 5-10 minutes to show any display. When they do, I miss the freaking bios screen while working on other things! So it's super not productive and really annoying.

I was thinking of using an Arduino Nano and a servo that clips to the top of the keyboard that just hits the stupid button for 10 minutes. Power it via a usb input. But I guess I'm going battery operated as those are the keyboard available. Can't change them. There is quite a distance between the computer and keyboard as well.

Thanks for the help.

I literally have this keyboard right in front of me, no USB ports.

..assuming that this keyboard still uses the PS/2 port.
