| Hello! I have some early pentium2 computer that has no USB ports, but it has ps2 port for mouse and keyboard. Can I use ps2 to usb adapter to connect some other devices to these ports? Let’s say, I connect 4xUSB hub to the adapter, and the adapter to PS2 mouse port. After that I connect mouse and printer to HUB. I now this may be a silly question, but I want to know if this is possible. |

| Unfortunately, this isn’t possible, as such.. PS2 ports are reserved for the special devices only, namely the keyboard and the mouse. These adapters PS2-USB are used to connect USB mouse to PS2 mouse jack, or USB keyboard to PS2 keyboard jack. But, you can buy PCI card USB hub if you want to use USB on your old machine. |
