USB to PS/2 converter
Anyone know if you can buy a USB to PS/2 converter? I need to convert a USB
keyboard to a PS/2 so that I can use it with a KVM switch. Thanks for any advice.

What I'd like to know is, Where are all the USB KVM's? (preferably with
audio mixing from all inputs, or at least audio support) "Paul" wrote in message ... Anyone know if you can buy a USB to PS/2 converter? I need to convert a USB keyboard to a PS/2 so that I can use it with a KVM switch. Thanks for any advice.

The one I linked below(previous post) is not the one you need. I have bought
USB keyboards that come with an adapter to plug it into a PS2 port so I know you can get one. "MrB" wrote in message t... Yes http://www.xpcgear.com/usb2ps2.html "Paul" wrote in message ...

Yes they sell them for use with mice. Not sure about keyboards, but should
work. -- DaveW "Paul" wrote in message ... Anyone know if you can buy a USB to PS/2 converter? I need to convert a USB keyboard to a PS/2 so that I can use it with a KVM switch. Thanks for any advice.

I got one with my Microsoft Keyboard but if I can find a way to splice on a PS2 connector I think I'll do it that way. USB keyboards can be a pain.
