 Not for Dell PCs August 12, 2008
I purchased 20 of these devices to convert PS2 Russian keyboards for a language classroom. We purchased new Dells that no longer have PS2 ports. Since the keyboards are so expensive, we decided to purchase converters instead of adding the PS2 board. I tried 6 of the converters on 4 different Dell computers and every USB port on the PCs. If it was detected at all, I received an error that it wasn't going to work properly and, sure enough, the keyboards weren't recognized. So I sent them back to Amazon and purchased dual splitters instead - and they worked perfectly. I have to comment that Amazon was a joy in the return process. I've never had to return anything before. I've always been hesitant about purchasing certain items for fear of the return process in the event I wasn't happy. But, this experience has proved to me that I don't have to worry. Thank you Amazon!!!
 Just doesn't work June 9, 2008
Though I have a keyboard that should meet the standards for this device, which are that it is designed to work either as PS2 or USB and that it came with an adaptor, this simply did not work.
 worked as promised May 9, 2008
received adapter on time and had it installed in seconds and worked as advertised. I will be bying more of these adapters in the future. Amazon was great
 A tutorial on USB to PS/2 adaptors March 5, 2008

OK, folks, listen up. There are two kinds of USB - PS/2 adapters. There's this kind, which simply changes one plug for another. It doesn't do any signal processing at all - it's just a dumb plug changer. For most of you, this will not work, because in order to use a PS/2 keyboard with a USB plug in the back of your computer, your adapter needs to change the signal somewhat. That's why you see the more expensive adapters - about $12 to $15. Those have circuitry inside them that actually changes the PS/2 output of your keyboard into a signal that the USB input of your computer will recognize. I learned this the hard way, too.
It didn't work for me, either October 11, 2007

I should have paid more attention to the reviews as this didn't work for me, either. I got the same message, doesn't recognize usb. I don't know if there could be a driver for this. I don't think the product is necessarily defective, it just doesn't work with Windows XP.
