Default Connect ps/2 to EXP8661

Hi,

I want to experiment with an old computer but the manual of the
motherboard isn't so good.

It's an EXP8661 motherbord, you can see the layout at:
http://stason.org/TULARC/pc/motherbo...m-EXP8661.html.

So the MS1 is the ps/2 mouse connector were I have the put in my
counter. The connector on the motherboard has 4 pins and the counter
has 5 holes and one of them hasn't got a wire. So it's like no wire,
yellow one, blue one, red one, green one.

Can anyone help me connecting it?
BTW: can I do something wrong by connecting it wrong?


You most likely need a PS/2 connector that mounts into one of openings
in your chassis for expansion cards. Here's an example that has a
parallel port *and* a PS/2 port:

With a bit more of a search, you can probably find one that just has a
mouse port.
