Hi,
I've got a PS/2 keyboard (IBM keyboards were the best thing to happen to
PC keyboard IMHO, apart from the first one) but unfortunatly the cable is
going on this one. I was wondering if anyone would have such a thing as a
replacement cable (silly flat connector at one end to PS2 at the
other) :&)
If you get no other help, I can find you the pinout of that IBM flat
keyboard connector. You can get the PS/2 keyboard pinouts off the web,
and wire up a cable. You might have to solder to the PCB traces inside
the keyboard, as you'll never find that flat connector...
Tony, since he says that his cable is going (south?), I would assume
that he would have the flat connector unless it is a molded on kind of
thing that would be destroyed in opening it up. Also, he should be able
to 'ring out' the end to end pinouts.
