    DELL INSPIRON 5000 & ext keyboard

    I have a friend who has the above laptop and would like to be able to use a full external keyboard.

    Does that laptop have a PS/2 port and if so can you just plug in an ext. board?Please register YourTraySpell

    I don't see why it wouldn't have at least 1 PS/2 port, and if so I also don't see why you cna't just plug the keyboard into it. That is what I used to do with my laptop.

    Yeah you shouldn't have a problem, people do that with laptops all the time.
