"BLUE CUBE" PS2 TO USB ADAPTER NOT WORKING
sschardi:
I have a windows 7 pc. I tried this on 4 different PS2 keyboards. Would work for a few seconds then stop. Windows would pop up error message. Used with and without a USB extender cable. Tried it in several different USB ports. Not sure if I need special drivers for the Keyboards? I tried an old IBM keyboard which worked on an older XP machine with a PS2 port. Also tried on two Compaq keyboards, and one Generic PS2 keyboard. Bought from Amazon. Anybody else have this problem?
Follow up: It wasn't the "cube" but a faulty extension usb cable. I tried a much shorter extension, and the "cube" works fine.
But what a waste of time and space by all the comments regarding my subject title in CAPS.
Leslieann:
Sounds like you may have gotten a bad cube.
Megaweapon:
Could it be a counterfeit? I've never heard of a fake blue cube, but who knows?

They are just a cheap Chinese product (try locating a brand name on one), I doubt anyone would clone a generic/unbranded product.

MAN IT'S REALLY HELPFUL WHEN PEOPLE TYPE IN ALL CAPS BECAUSE I AM UNABLE TO READ.
