I recently purchased a new Lenovo desktop with Windows 7. I want to use my old Dell (ten ears old) Model SK-8110 PS/2 keyboard. I purchased an adapter - PS/2 keyboard to USB. When I connected it to the back of the computer, nothing happened. Don't know what to do next.

So that is the problem. I ordered my PS/2 to USB adapter from Wamart.com. Would you mind looking at the one they have - it is much cheaper.

Link Depot USB 2.0 to PS/2 Keyboard and Mouse Adapter

Thank you soooooooooooooo much. I don't want to spend $27.00 at Amazon. I could buy a new keyboard with that much money.

I hear you! But I do not want to spend $27.00 at Amazon. I could buy a new keyboard. It is just that I LOVE the feel of my old keyboard and would really like to be able to use it. Thanks.
