Help with MSX Victor HC-95 keyboard

Hello guys,
I'm a new user here. I'm not that experienced with MSX. I'm an italian laserdisc game collector. I collect laserdisc arcade games but I also own a japanese Pioneer Palcom MSX with all the laserdisc games. I need the help of you MSX gurus here. A friend of mine bought a japanese MSX Victor HC-95 without keyboard. Without keyboard, we cannot use it.
Can you help us in finding one ? Do you know if there's one for sale somewhere ?
Can you adapt another keyboard to work with the HC-95 ?
We are trying to put together a MSX+VHD system to run MSX VHD games. We already got a couple of games working (Star Arthur Legend - Planet Mephius and Birdie try), but we need this keyboard to do more testing with this model of Victor MSX. Many thanks in advance for any help.

Padial does a PS2 (ibm) keyboard adaptor for MSX, it uses an empty cartridge slot, and allows you to use a PS2 keyboard with your MSX.

You might be able to find a copy of the HC95 service manual, and rewire another MSX keyboard, although I do not know where you might find one.

Hello djh1697,
thanks for replying. How do I get in touch with Padial ? I can't find him on the contact list...
If anyone has a copy of the HC-95 service manual or any info about the keyboard connector, please let me know. I would be also interested in buying the kayboard adaptor made by Padial, can anyone please tell me where to get it ? Many thanks for your help.

Matteo
