Windows 10: Help keyboard and mouse ps/2, serial and din ports are disable

Hi
Congratulations this is a great forum
I have old machines and several mouse and keyboards with sp/2 , din and serial port
And i like use them sometimes
But Lastest updates win7/8/10 (if you sometime input usb keyboard or mouse in past) disable serial, ps/2 and din ports, mouse and keyboard, into win7/8/10, INCLUDE on boot, do You know why?
I think is the generic driver of chipset and bios of windows for older hardware, that change something in ACPI,
Or
Some Autoexec.bat update change probally.
But i don't know!
I see on internet many people witn the same problem and they can't fix througth update or delete drivers
I think is something on dependency tree instalation drivers
Can You help?
Thanks from Brasil

PS/2 keyboard and mouse troubles

Hello,

My PS/2 keyboard was acting up, every time I pressed the left 'ctrl' key, it had opened up the file explorer. That is no longer my problem.

I, thinking I was the smart one, decided to go to the Device Manager and try to sort this out myself. Well, I made a huge mistake. Under where it says "Keyboards" I had 'accidentally' told it to delete my PS/2 keyboard from the devices list! Now, no PS/2
device will work, no mouse or keyboard or anything! I'm forced to use a USB keyboard, which I don't like, as that PS/2 keyboard was my favorite. It was the best keyboard I had ever used.

No PS/2 keyboard or mouse will work on my system at all now, not even in BIOS. I've tried everything I could think of, and I still haven't managed to fix it.





Thank you all for help!

 

PS/2 mouse

It should be plug and play. If you currently have a USB mouse connected, disconnect it from the USB port, then connect the PS/2 mouse to the PS/2 port.

Restart if its not detected.

 

What is the best Keyboard and mouse that can be used with PS/2 Ports?

It will be used on an old KVM at my work that only supports PS/2 Mouse and Keyboard Input for the console.

For the keyboard, I am looking to get either a Noppoo choc mini 84 Cherry MX Brown or an Adesso Compact Size Mechanical Gaming Keyboard AKB-625UB with PS/2 adapter.

For the mouse, I am looking to get a Logitech G500 (hyperscroll wheel and thumb buttons is a must)


Will it work?

Do you guys have any specific brand or model recommendation for USB to PS/2 adapter for both the keyboard and mouse?
