    USB/PS2 on legacy free motherboards

    I recently got an Abit AT7-MAX for my new PC, but I already had a cordless wheelmouse I intended to use with it. The motherboard is "legacy free" and has no PS2 ports, only USB ones. A friend told me that even if I got a PS2 to USB converter, the mouse still wouldn't work, because the motherboard is legacy free. Tell me this isn't true The mouse is kinda expensive on my low wage, and the Abit website doesn't mention anything, nor does the motherboard manual.

    I think your friend is talking bologna yes, it should work.

    Abit AT7 huh...how'd you change out the back I/O Panel on your case? I have an Antec SX840 and I don't see how it's supposed to snap out/screw out.
    I'm bringing geeky back...

    I have a Chieftec Black Dragon.
    The existing back plate was just held in with weak welds, like the blanking plates on empty drive bays. A few minutes with a hammer and a pair of pliers got it sorted. The new plate just snaps into place, and can't move at all once the motherboard is in.
