Hi all,

If I want to change my keyboard connection from a standard 6 pin to a USB to plug in the back of my pooter, what would I need?

Thanks

    A PS/2 to USB converter :)
    Make sure it converts the right way before buying one. You will get them cheap on sites like eBay.

    You'll probably pay about 3 or 4 quid inc P+P for one of these...but places like eBuyer.com will sell you a whole new USB keyboard for the same price. So unless you're attached to your existing keyboard for some reason, it may be worthwhile treating yourself to something new!
