Update:
Ok everyone! An update for you all on the FM77AV PS/2 keyboard adapter! The current firmware has been tested and it works! Right now a-z, 0-9, and a few symbols are working. The next firmware will include the complete keyset. After the next firmware is completed, we will make a run of boards and start selling immediately. I would like to know who here has an FM77AV and is interested in buying one of these adapters. Keep in mind even if you have a keyboard for your FM77AV it is still wise to buy one of these, since the FM77AV keyboards are very well known for breaking randomly.
I just noticed that there is already a post for this, after I already made another one. I am one of the 2 people in on this project. The new firmware is in and working that includes the enter key. The next one will include the full keymap in the following layout:

Great news I hope he win to make this adapter it will be a very good news for my fm-77 av40SX ^^.
I'm very glad to hear that you are interested. I will let you know a price once we have the boards in and know how much our expenses are. If you are the owner of an FM77AV40SX, maybe you would also be interested in another project I am working on. I am preparing an install DVD you can use to set up the ultimate disk writing station by installing DOS 7.10 (optionally with Windows for Workgroups 3.11), Windows 98SE and Windows XP SP3 in a TRUE triple boot configuration (not just Windows 98 booting in DOS mode) as well as every piece of software you need to write floppies for just about every classic computer as well use these operating systems to their full potential. To not violate any copyrights, the image is distributed without any OS files. You need to have Windows XP and Windows 98SE as either disks or image files. You run an executable and the image will be completed with files from your two OS disks. Anyone who has experimented with disk writing for classic computers will know that you require access to all three of these operating systems to reliably write disks for these machines. Anyway, I'll keep everyone updated on both projects as they progress.
