An active converter is needed to use modern USB on retro computers. I made one a few years ago for many different computers. https://github.com/dekuNukem/USB4V

There's also a more recent project called HIDman, but only for PCs.

- jimmaswell 2y agoI once didn't want to wait to get a ps/2 keyboard in the mail to set up an older PC so I made a quick and dirty adapter out of an arduino.
- nvllsvm 2y agoAnother one is ps2x2pico. I've been using it in my retro machines and it works great. For my Logitech G305 mouse (1000hz), I have ps2x2pico configured to force a 100hz mouse polling rate so the cursor is super smooth in Windows 98 without needing to use a program like PS2Rate. For my Keychron S1 keyboard, N-key rollover works flawlessly. https://github.com/No0ne/ps2x2pico https://github.com/No0ne/ps2x2pico
