| Yesterday, my computer suddenly stopped working. I try few things to repair it but I everything failed. Therefore, I brought it to computer service. From everything they told me, only thing I understood is that I have a PS/s keyboard problem and that I have to convert ps/2 keyboard to USB keyboard and everything will work fine. Why is that? |

| You definitely did not understand them well. From my experience, I have to assume what they told you. From your symptoms, I think that you have a chipset problem. Every motherboard has two chipsets (North and South) on it and one is responsible for controlling peripherals. In your case, that chipset is probably dead and they put you additional USB controller. Now, if you want to use your keyboard you will have to buy a converter from ps/2 to USB. You avoid that problem with your mouse because you probably already have an USB mouse. Anyway, you can work like that for a while but when you collect enough money replace it because it will most certainly fail completely. |
