Hi Stephen, Without seeing a picture, I am going to venture a guess that you are looking at some USB to PS2 adapters one end of the adapter should be female (the USB end according to your description?), the other end male to plug into the motherboard ports. Purple is a rather ³popular² standard color for PS2 keyboard connections on a PC, with orange or green being for the PS2 mouse more than likely, your cables were issued with an older PC right at the transition period into USB.
