I have soldered up a ps2 keybaord hack and think the soldering is fine. However when I plug it in I get no keys pressed on the "keyhook". I have done an old keyboard hack with the old 5 pin style plug and had no problems on my old machine. I notice that the old keyboard had an earth wire and there doesn't seem to be one for the ps2 is this my mistake? (ie does it have one, and where do I connect it?) or have I blown the chip on the keyboard card? Your help would be really really appreciated. Many thanks Smeagol.
