The new one will likely come with a new mouse and keyboard anyway, but if you like yours better, you can still use them.

Check the specs. They are no longer coming with some of the 'typical' connections of former generations. Some only have USB connections for monitor and mouse now.

The Gateway i5 I bought only has PCI Express slots. I purchased a regular pci TV card at the same time. I didn't realize until I opened the case that the TV card didn't fit in any of the slots. So, I had to buy a TV card with a PCI Express configuration.

Her machine is only 4 years old, and a Dell. Pretty much guarantees it will have had a USB keyboard and mouse, per my original post (and I think you meant keyboard and mouse, not monitor and mouse).

I’m surprised you could still find a regular PCI card; they’re really old tech now, and most motherboards don’t even have the slots anymore, especially the boards for the Intel i-series processors.

Also, to be honest, I hadn’t seen PS2 connectors used since around 2003. It was therefore a surprise when I got here to India, and the University where I work had only PS2 keyboards and mice.
