Archived from groups: alt>comp>periphs>keyboard (more info?)

I bought a BENQ wirelss keyboard/optical mouse set and works great.
The base equipment connects the keyboard pin to the PS2 port. I would
like to connect my normal WIRED keyboard to my computer simultaneously
with the wireless keyboard as well. IS this possible? (This works
perfectly well with the wireless mouse and the normal wired mouse -
they both work perfectly together on windows XP and 9Cool.

The idea is I dont want to keep plugging in and out the two keyboards
frequently. The wireless keyboard tends to loose battery very quickly.
Also, I would prefer to use the WIRED keyboard for playing games, when
i hit the keyboard like a maniac.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Yes, assuming your wired keyboard is USB. I have a PS2 keyboard and a
USB keyboard working simultaneously.<!-- ~MESSAGE_AFTER~ -->
