wellp, My Ports are fried, not really sure what happned, only one working is my USB, video and sound and Ethernet is fine.dont know if my printer port is dead. dont have a printer to see if it is working. Those PS\2 to USB addapters are expensive. compared to the USB to PS\2 ones found with the intillie mouse by microsoft. Im wondering if I get a female PS\2 to Female ps\2 atached to a male PS\2 to female USB then agian atach a MALE usb to a male USB and attach all that to my hub, would it work? most of these parts are in doller to 2 doller range. I already have a male to male USB, it was for a project of mine. Those ps\2 to USB are in the 30 doller range. Im trying to save some money here. heres a diagram of what I mean.http://wsphotofews.excite.com/029/ZX/aJ/DH/PU16793.jpg
