I have the IPISB-CU (Carmel2) motherboard, and as far as I can tell that means it does not include a PS/2 port. I am wondering, then, if I purchase a USB to PS/2 converter adapter, will a PS/2 keyboard work with Legacy USB support disabled?? I need to do some work in the BIOS.

EDIT: The chipset is the H61, which when on Intel motherboards DOES have a PS/2 port. The converse is true for this HP prebuilt desktop that I am working on. Does anyone know why this is?

Yes, that will work. I do that all the time.

But make sure you get the right PS/2 to USB converter.
PS/2 keyboard and PS/2 mouse use the same PS/2 plug, but you need different USB adapters. Some adapters are keyboard only, some are mouse only and some can handle both. Make sure you get the right one.
