I had a similar issue with my mouse attached to the PS2 port. Couldn't get it to work in MDK 9 at all. Put the adapter on and plugged into USB and it works fine. I have no ideas why. My son has similar computer (different mouse) and his works through USB port.That's interesting - I've used PS/2 to serial adapters, but I've never even heard of a PS/2 to USB adaptor - don't the two protocols work at different speeds?
Anyway, I fixed my mouse problem by using the clever heuristics I developed in my Microsoft days - do things at random, reboot, reinstall programs, whatever. I suspect the thing that made the crucial difference was putting it on some printed paper instead of blank paper (my desk is no good, as it has a glass top which drives optical mice crazy).
