I have a new IBM Thinkpad with Win 2000. The Thinkpad has no PS2 port and I
have a standard, no frills, PS2 keyboard that just fits on my small keyboard
tray. I want to keep it and have gotten a PS2 to USB connector. When I
attached it and plugged it in Windows detected it as a plug and play device
but couldn't find a driver and the installation failed. The keyboard doesn't
work and since then I've rebooted numerous times and detached/attached the
keyboard but don't see it detected any more. I see only 1 keyboard in the
device manager and didn't see any options in the BIOS that had anything to
do with an external keyboard.

Does anyone know how I can get this keyboard installed and working.

Thanks,

Joe Trimarchi
