I've got an older Compaq Armada laptop I'm trying to set up for my wife to use, but the mousepad stinks, and it uses the serial port for an external mouse. So I'm trying to hook up one of the mice we've got laying around. I can't find anywhere to look up if they're combo mice or strictly PS/2 mice. I tried looking at the mfr's websites, but they're not listed anywhere. Is there a source somewhere to find out if I should be able to expect them to work? I've got a PS/2 to DB9 adapter already, but I can't tell if the mice should be expected to work or if the laptop has something configured wrong.
