Changing MB from MSI K8 Neo to Gigabyte MA74GM

I had to change the motherboard of one of my PC's. The original MSI K8 Neo with an AM2 AMD processor was broken and the present MB on a AMD AM2 processors rare. So  I bought me a Gigabyte MB MA 74GM-S2H with a AM3 processor. The end price was acceptable, as there where also other alternatives.
The  problem with the new MB is that they don' t have PS/2 connections anymore or only one on board.
The original PC was connected to a VGA KVM switch with PS/2 keyboard and mouse. There was only one PS/2 connection possible. Finding an adapter PS/2 to USB was at the first local shop hard if not impossible according the sales person !!
But I finally found this Belkin adapter. Quit some money, but it's working fine now!
