i8042prt.sys PS/2 keyboard driver

NTDEV

Hello everyone,
Does anyone know how Windows 2000 determines whether or not load the
i8042prt.sys ps/2 keyboard driver? Specifically, does Windows 2000 look
for a PNP node, keyboard status bits, or some kind of ID command from the
keyboard???
Thanks in advance.

connect to keyboard port driver i8042prt,
