How is PS2 connector on motherboard
Personal System 2 (IBM PC and a connector format).
PS/2 keyboard has what is called Mini-Din 6 pins and a mouse has DIN 5 pins.
That depends on whether the mose has a USB or PS2 connection on it. If it has a USB connection the connector and port for it are as displayed here: If it has a ps2 connection the connector and port are displayed here: If it is this type then you would plug it into the green ps2 port as the purple port is for a keyboard
Go to a computer accessories shop and look for the green USB to PS2 Mouse adapter. Or you can buy it online. See the picture at this link (check that the port matches your PC mouse port): http://www.rudyp.com/usbtops2moad.html IMPROVED: Please note the answer above is for converting a USB to PS2 connector, NOT USB to Serial Port. A USB to Serial Port adapter does not, to my knowledge, exist. So please verify if you want a PS/2 (small, round connector) or Serial Port (long, flat connection with many pins) Also, the color of the adapter may vary.
Yes you can use a PS2 controller into a PC by buying a PS2 to USB connector. This is a connector that tricks the controller into thinking its a PS2.
This is called a "bus mouse" and is the precursor to PS2 technology. In the 1980s IBM compatible computers did not have a built in interface for a mouse. At the time many mouses used a serial connection (COM port). The bus mouse interface was developed by Microsoft so that the mouse would have its own dedicated interface. It was soon rendered obsolete when IBM released its next generation of PC's with the PS2 interface for keyboard and mouse.
yes. you have to buy a ps2 to usb connector. after that, you can play online.
PS2 is the input format for the mouse, optical refers to the 'laser mouse' method of mouse movement. PS2 is an old format which is not supported by many newer computers, as companies favor the USB input format since it allows for faster data transfer.
RS-232 serial ports, Parallel ports, and PS2 mouse and keyboard ports. These days, all of these functions can be handled by Universal Serial Bus (USB ) connections.
The PSP is designed to be connected to the PS3 not the PS2
