Is it possable to take a PS2 keyboard and then mod it into usb? The reason is I have lots of PS2 keyboards but want to be able to plug one in to my x-box which is usb only.

thanks

Well there are USB to PS/2 plugs... so I think it would be possible if you find out which pins they connect with eachother.

My PC eats so much money that I'm in 'desperate' need of it to buy PC3500 RAM, help Svol with his OC project!

I don't think the X-Box uses a standard plug, but the signals are still standard USB, so my suggestion is to get an inexpensive USB keyboard and modify the plug as needed.
