USB keyboard to PS2 adapter?

[amdalex]

I can't find an adapter to plug my USB keyboard into a PS2 port on newegg. Where can I find one?:confused:

You could also try a local PC shop. I picked up one recently for $4.

A generic adapter may or may not work. The only ones that always work are ones that come with the keyboard and/or mouse.

can someone please tell me why not just plug it into the usb port?
hope you don't mind, amdalex.

I would like to use the keyboard with a PS2 KVM switch. The adapter linked to above goes from a PS2 to USB.

See this thread about how adaptors and KVM switches aren't fun to deal with:
