2 x ps2 keyboards at once

(1/3) > >>

lam47:
In linux I can use the mouse PS2 port for a second keyboard but in vista it does not work.
Is there a way to run them both?

I have some little PS2 to USB adapters but they also dont seem to work with any of my keyboards.
However if I try them on the xbox they work fine.

Any ideas?

Pics of the "little PS2 to USB adapters?" The little tiny ones tend to just be pin converters... but that'd be odd, unless the Xbox's USB host ports can also act as a PS/2 host for some reason.

I will have to take some pictures in the morning as it quite late and Ella is asleep.
It does seem off though.
