PS/2 Barcode reader and USB keyboard
-
Hello, A good question for this new forum! :cool: I have a PS/2 barcode reader I'm trying to make work with an USB keyboard. So far, what I've done is: 1. Turn on the computer with a PS/2 keyboard and the PS/2 barcode reader. 2. After Windows startup, fire up Notepad and read a barcode. 3. Disconnect the PS/2 keyboard and connect the USB keyboard. Everything works fine. But if I try to boot up with the USB keyboard and the PS/2 barcode reader, it won't work. It beeps the first time I read a barcode, but it's not displayed in the screen. After that, it won't read anything. I've also tried booting up with just the barcode reader and plugging in the USB keyboard later. The keyboard works fine, but not the reader. So, any ideas? This has driven me nuts all the morning. -- LuisR
