    How to access USB Pen Drive through PS2 Port ?

    Hi,

    I have a USB Pen Drive, but my USB port is blocked. Need to store data in the Pen Drive. So, if I connect the USB Pen Drive to the PS2 port using a PS2-USB adaptor , shall i be able to store data in the pen drive ??
    Thanks

      no. this way around it doesn't work.
      those ps2-usb adaptors are for USB mice and keyboards only, because their controllers (most of them) support both modes and can autosense which way they're connected.
      other (non-input) USB devices simply don't support PS/2. it's that simple.
      how about a USB hub?

                  True. The problem is between the keyboard and the chair.
