O.P. Computer Ports?
hey i lately bought a new keyboard/mouse kit.. wireless of course

now the thing is i got a laptop, and I dunt have a port for a mouse and a keyboard, mine is althogether ( both mouse and keyboard can be connected in it, but only 1 at a time  )

now i know what i can buy to solve this issue, but I found i had kind of an adapter for mouse.. you put it and it gets ous as an old printer plus.. but rlly small though..

so i looked if there was any port on my laptop in which i could install this adapter, i found one that fits.. the only thing is that when i put the whole thing in none happens.. dunno what to do.. not even sure if this port is for a mouse or not..

heres the port logo  :             | o | o |

anyone knows if whatt im doing can work? or if it has none to do..??!

$10 will get you a device that lets you plug one ps/2 mouse and one ps/2 keyboard into one usb port (CAD)
