Will this adapter work for connecting a PS/2 connector on an old KeyTronics keyboard to a USB port on my new Dell Inspiron 3847 computer?

Good question. This thing will connect my IBM M to about anything I've tried it on, including multiple Dell and Toshiba models, and even my Galaxy S3 with a USB to Micro USB adapter. So, I'd say that it will <i>probably</i> work.

It works great. No problem of any kind. I am using with an old NORTHGATE OMNI keyboard.

I'm using it with a LS2208 that had a PS2 keyboard wedge before. I'm pretty sure it works with the LS4006 as well. In my experience the connector on the unit itself is RJ-45 and all the different connection cables (RS-232, PS2, USB) are interchangeable. I'd give it a try ;-)

Yes. Your keyboard has a PS2 connection. It will plug into either the green or the purple ends. The other can be used for an old mouse.

I don't know anything about that keyboard. The power adapter I bought puts out 2A at 12V and plugs into the keyboard with a standard 2-conducter mini-plug. You need to look at the input on the back (or wherever) of your keyboard. Mine says "DC input 10-12V."

Yes the keygrabber will work with PS2 if you have the adapter to go from PS2 to USB.

I'm not sure. I got a new computer but there is only sata connector on motherboard so I wanted use this adapter to connect sata to IDE but it does not work with my computer.

Very doubtful. I have a Logitech G110 gaming keyboard, which--like your K120--has a USB connector. It absolutely does NOT work with this Star Tech adapter. Unless you find a keyboard that specifically stipulates PS/2 compatibility, I would assume it will not work with a USB-PS/2 adapter, regardless of the manufacturer. I have a Microsoft Wheel Mouse Optical that has a USB connector but that stipulates PS/2 compatibility. That mouse works with this adapter.

I purchased this connector to use on my Microsoft natural keyboard, this key board has the PS2 connector, this adaptor works ok, the keyboard lost communication a few times but not a big problem. I would still purchase this adaptor again. I am not to sure about your question about USB 1.1

It worked fine on my older computer. I plugged my PS2 mouse into the PS2 end of the adapter, then plugged the USB end into the USB port on my computer and it worked fine. Doesn't take a genius to do it either, and I'm certainly no genius! Good luck! Anna Banana

No. If I'm correct, no one sells keyboards bundled with usb to ps2 adapters. You'll have to buy one separately, or purchase a used bundle on ebay or craigslist.

I don't have a Windows 98 computer. I used this adapter (actually all three that I purchased) to plug in a PS/2 mouse to a USB port on a Windows XP computer and none of them worked. That's too bad because if any of them worked I was going to send them to you. Look for the adapter that shaped like a cube. I will try that one and give you a link if it works. Stay tuned. in the meantime, I would not buy the ones in question.All the best,Kent Taylor

This adapter can work with Dell Inspiron 1501, but may I know your original adapter part number as well as the power specification (watt, volt, ampere) for double checking? Please feel free to contact us via support@ianker.com, we will always be here to assist you.

It should since it uses the old interface IDE 40 pin. For my laptop, Dell uses an adapter card the convert 40 pin IDE to its proprietary interface. If that it the case, save the adapter card from the old hard drive so you can reuse it. You can detach it easily by pulling it out. Good luck.

Yes, this adapter is compatible with your Dell Inspiron. I use mine with the same model.

This will connect a ps2 keyboard and mouse to a USB port. If the older MAC used a PS2 keyboard and mouse it should work, however I'm not sure Mac ever used PS/2

I bought this for an Older Dell with monitor - remember you don't need a keyboard/mouse because new ones come with this unit. It will definitely work with any monitor because those connections have never changed. Depending on how old your keyboard/mouse are they may have the older small PC connectors (probably not the really old fat ones) - this new keyboard/mouse are USB port connections.

Yes, USB 2.0 or USB 3.0 will work. You don't need high throughput for a PS/2 keyboard or mouse, so theres no reason to tie up a high speed USB.
