Re: USB Keyboard

I recently bought a USB keyboard to replace a PS/2 keyboard. I don't
like it when the USB bus hangs and the keyboard is dead so I bought an
adapter that plugs a USB keyboard to a PS/2 port. For some reason that
does not work at all where a previous PS/2 keyboard worked just fine.
What could be the problem?



The adaptor? Or perhaps the USB doesn't like the keyboard ('USB bus[sic] hangs and the keyboard is dead')? Sounds like you could have a bad keyboard....
