Perixx PERIPRO-401 PS2 to USB Adapter for Keyboard and Mouse - Built-in USB Controller - Black

I bought this to go with my DELL AT101W mechanical keyboard (ALPS switch). I game with the keyboard, so I need/want keys to stay pressed anytime I hold down the keys. My previous motherboard had a PS/2 port on-board, which worked perfectly fine. This USB adapter works ok, as in the keyboard is detected and I can type away normally. However, in games for some reason, the keys (usually the WASD keys) stop responding if I hold them down for too long (when running/walking/driving for example). This is quite annoying to me personally, as I am not used to having to re-press movement keys in certain games. It isnt an issue in all games though, as some games you move around enough that you dont hold down the keys long enough for them to stop responding. I personally dont recommend this adapter, unless you only plan to use the keyboard for typing, as you will notice issues when playing games, and most likely get frustrated in wondering why the keys are not responding.

I purchased two. They work as expected with no issues. Ill buy these again if/when needed.

Works fine with proper hookup sequence . Hook up the adapter alone to your USB port, let the PC recognize it, and then plug in your PS2 keyboard.

I had an old/new keyboard that had a much better feel and response than my wifes and she wanted it but it had a PS/2 connection and her new computer, of course, is all USB. This item was shipped promptly and I connected it and shes a happy girl!

Needed this converter from PS2 to USB in order for my wifes keyboard to work. It now works fine. Did not need the mouse adapter.

For ergonomic reasons, needed to use two older keyboards that had P/S2 connectors, on laptops that had only USB inputs. These adapters worked perfectly, following the simple instructions of attaching the adapters first (to let the operating system load the proper drivers for them), then attaching the keyboards to the adapters.

Durable cables, however the title should list that this is a female to female adapter, this item would be used to plug in an old mouse/ keyboard into a newer computer utilizing the PS/2 connector.

Heard Leo Laport talk about old keyboards and how they are better for various reasons. Bought this adapter to see, my old Hewlett Packard keyboard would work with my MacBook Pro. This adapter worked wonderfully with my computer and keyboard. I am happy that I can put something old back to work. :)

Works exactly as expected, and my ancient Northgate keyboard, already adapted for a PS/2 connection, lives again, now thru USB. I’m a happy camper.

Works great. I use it only for my old PS/2 keyboard outlet. I guess should work good with the old ball mouse.
