Can I Convert Old PS/2 I-Pac 4 to USB

[Santo8742]

I have an old I-Pac 4 purchased new in 2006 that is set up for PS/2. I'm just getting back into working on my cab again after many years and bought a new computer to go in the cab (the modder system TKW4rr10r is selling here: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,133968.0.html) This system does not have a PS/2 input on it. Can I buy a cable that will it work with USB or will one of those cheap PS/2 to USB converters work with it? I'd prefer to not buy a new I-Pac if possible.

You can buy an adapter that complies with what's mentioned there.

Good Luck!

Great! Thanks for the help. Only issue is they want to charge $16 shipping for a little cable. Don't see any way to change from DHL. $16 is more than a little excessive.

try divemaster? He stocks ultimarc stuff on this side of the pond.

The cheap passive adapters will do it.  Or cut a PS/2 wire and splice it to a USB cable.

I was thinking maybe they were in England, but couldn't remember. That explains the shipping then. I've purchased from divemaster before 9 years ago. Good to hear he's still around. I'll give a shot. Thanks for the help.

Divemaster has them in stock and took care of me. Thanks again for the help everyone. Now to get everything up running again for some gaming.

I would try this first.  Can't go wrong for $2 and free shipping:
