Asus P5K only has keyboard PS2 so when I made a post about it in this group
a couple of people said a PS2 splitter would solve the issue. Well, thanks
for wasting my time and money you twats because it does not work! When
putting both the keyboard and mouse onto a PS2 splitter only the keyboard
works and not the mouse. There must be something different about laptop PS2
ports for it to be able to work. I said it wouldn't work but, no, you guys
insisted it would. Well, it doesn't so STFU next time if you don't know what
the hell you are talking about. |

You are correct in that not all PS/2 ports support a PS/2 splitter.
MOST laptops do, but not even all of them.

It has a PS2 Keyboard port but no similar mouse port, correct? Then either
buy a USB mouse or use a USB to PS2 adapter. I must have about five of
those laying around the house. Radio Shack has them for about $2.

why not just pay $8 and get a plug to convert PS2 --> USB
or buy a USB mouse >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

You mean the other way around. USB --> PS2, better make that clear or
you'll be the next "numbnuts". LOL

The OP will need to mow a few more lawns or steal more
money from mommy's wallet to do that. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

Because I have a PS2 KVM. As it is I am using a second wireless mouse for
the other PC and just use the KVM for keyboard and monitor. I need to buy a
KVM with USB and PS2 to solve this issue. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

I have a few of those too how do you figure attaching a USB mouse to a PS2
adapter is going to solve the issue? There is only one PS2 port, some idiots
in this group told me to buy a PS2 splitter claiming it would solve the
issue. It doesn't and they made me waste my time and money by buying a PS2
splitter. Anyway, I am using a PS2 KVM and was trying to avoid having to buy
another KVM with USB and PS2. Buying one of those will mean having to mow at
least 5 lawns and I'm a lazy bastard so that is out of the question. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

Oh well, the splitter was only five bucks so I always have one handy if I
should ever buy a Laptop that needs one. Which is highly unlikely. I'm just
going to have to cough up for a KIM with both USB and PEST. Thanks to Asus
only putting a keyboard PEST port on the mob. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

Haha...Windows Mail spellchecker changed PS2 to PEST. I clicked change
instead of ignore. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |

How about you paying attention to what I said? My mouse is USB but I want to
use it attached to a PS2 KVM using a USB>PS2 adapter but the P5K mb only has
keyboard PS2 so I can't use the mouse on it and it is connected to USB for
now. On the other PC I have to use another mouse so that makes my KVM only
KV for now. Was told to buy a PS2 splitter by some morons in this group and
I am just telling them that it doesn't work so all they did was make me
waste my time and money. >> Stay informed about: For the numbnuts who told me to buy a PS2 splitter |
