These "converters" are not really converters. Only work if the mouse is especially made for both PS2 and serial. If it's a pure PS2 mouse, it can't work - even with "converter" - hardwarewise! >Is there anyway to check if the serial port is okay ? For example, you can connect SER1 and SER2 with a Nullmodem-cable (standard PC style) and send data from SER1 to SER2 and vice-versa. Peter
