My PS/2 (not PS2 console) to USB Converter for my PS/2 Keyboard - Part 1 [Mar 2, 2020]
(Once again, my original tumblr account has finally lifted the termination without received a message from the tumblr support but nevertheless...)
I’m gonna re-post it from yesterday on Mar 2, 2020 [CLICK ME! to see my original post]
Anyway, I’d just came home from a computer retailer store for purchasing this PS/2 (not Sony PS2 console) to USB converter for my 6½ year old version of A4Tech KRS-85 Keyboard ⌨️. I actually bringing it just to testing at the computer retailer store and it definitely worked, also I was so exhausted from walking from store to store both outside and inside mall until I’ve finally found it, riding on the Jeepney and went straight home from walking - at least I get exercise by walking (,it never fails).
BTW:
#1 - Like my other posts which is never exists my 2 photos are now combined by using my GIMP despite I have a total of 11 photos despite the limitation of 10.
(and) #2 - No Paper Dolls appearance this time around.
From 1st to 4th Image(s):
• Here’s my PS/2 to USB converter looks like, it costs me Php 100 so it’s a big deal. Although there’s also the wire version of that but I prefer this kind of version for a less wire and more space. Here you can see there are two PS/2 slot ports aside from male USB port on the other side (please see 1st image): The mouse port on the left and on the right was the keyboard port. Again it’s not PS2 that sony console which is not relation to the year old computer port.
From 5th to 6th Image(s) [Combined]:
•And since I don’t have a PS/2 mouse (while my A4Tech OP-720 USB optical mouse still works) I instead used my old KRS-85 Keyboard. My apology for the messy dust on my old keyboard but it is what it is when it comes of usage, I might clean up someday.
So where’s my USB version of that? Well get to that later…
• Here you can see there a violet color PS/2 port plug indicates the Keyboard (, and while the other port plug was a green which indicates the Mouse. Although I don’t have that but you could always google it), I’m sure you’re already familiar of. Look at the plug and socket of the PS/2 it matched.
7th to 9th Image(s):
• Now I already plugged in my PS/2 Keyboard through the converter and into the USB from the laptop and it really worked! Now I can finally type again with my old friend. Man It’s been 6½ years and It still functional, I really missed you so much! 😁 Again, please excuse the messed around the keyboard… ^^;
10th Image:
• Okay so as for my USB keyboard of the same A4Tech model? Well unfortunately it did not very well… I really thought that my new (USB) keyboard will be the same lifespan as the old one but it didn’t go the distance.☹️ Well sure it worked for sometime but after a seconds / minutes or so it became malfunctioned during my typing and it attempt to not respond the functional keyboard after I tried to yank out and plug in numerous times, making it very annoying to me. I would say that my USB keyboard is now semi-dead right now; it’s a damn shame so there goes my Php 220 USB Keyboard. 😔 And it’s a good thing my old one still alive and well. 😌
Now I’m gonna say this for REAL…↓
Well that’s it for now. Originally I’m gonna make a quick topic so I’m planning to record a video to see how it performs in typing test. The 2nd Part (finale) will be coming soon. so in case you missed my semi-dead USB keyboard and their comparisons then please check out my albums and posts down below. ↓
