It should do, but the thumbdrive is probably USB 2.0, and the adaptor probably isn't. So that might be an issue.

It will not work, there's not enough power in the centronics port, but if somehow you got it powered up, and if you wrote some software to drive the port, it could work.

the DB25 to DB9 Serial adapter coupled with the DB9 to PS/2 adapter would work with an old mouse that came with a DB9 to PS/2 adapter. But, that's where it ends. The USB drive would not work with the PS/2 to USB adapter. This definitely would not work due to the physical connections of the wiring and also the conversion of 3 formats Serial, PS/2, and USB 2.0.....suck it faggots

I would like to bring Exhibit "A" to mind, if it pleases the board: the title, Will it work? "Of course it will."
Upon reading the first line, one assumes that the "it" in question is the object, one multi-adaptive tech item. I posit that the "it" it is referring is the posting of the picture itself, and that whether or not it works is dependant upon whether or not it spawned a discussion of its merits.
Let us not forget the second line, "of course it will".

Parallel Port to D-Sub )( DSub to PS2 )(PS2 to USB .... I thinks its a question of drivers and software...Its a Possibiliy it might ... I have never really messed with parallel port because typically its for printers and such .. I beleive once the signel sends from the flash drive to the PS2 connection it will fail ... And Im gonna stick its all a question of drivers and Software :) NICE MIND F**K THOUGH !!!

there is a bug in the chain. i blew up five computers and a dozen usb pen drives. you idiot. you forgot the level-shifter. i applied a max232 to convert 8-12V rs232 to 5V usb. with some diodes you can drop signal lines to 3.3V but that is not neccessary. try a usb-wlan 54G with dos8, you won't belive it.

It's not a parallel port adapter. It's RS232 DB25 (serial). To get this to work, all you need is to hook this to an Iomega ZIP drive via a female-female crossover cable.

Well, at first sight it looked to me like a shaving-apparatus. Gillette mach 19 pin usb 2.0 or sumpin. I guess, it would work as such.
Oh, and I didn't believe this "it's shopped"stuff, but then I took a glimpse at the shadows of the PS2 to usb adapter and of the stick itself, and I'm wondering, why the two different shades of dark are so much better recognizable than in the rest of the shadows. By the way, this is so unimportant, I'm fascinated, how it can bring people to swear and insult each other. Cheers

I can't believe you guys actually have me thinking about this shit. USB needs power, it is a circuit, and thus requires an electrical current. I think that end adapter is VGA to DB-25. If this is the case, you may be able to access and transport data from the drive to the machine, as long as it provides some sort of current (which it should, according to my research on the types of devices that the male counterpart of the DB25 includes), but you would still require a driver of some sort, as well as some sort of communications interface.

Now excuse me because I need to go bitch slap the guy who sent this to me, because I don't think he actually expected me to take this seriously.

Kyle [13-06-2010, 10:08 AM] [#1618]

It may work, but you would need a specific driver for it (obviously home brewed) But in theory, yes it should work. Parallel is exactly the same speed as usb 1.0, and even though these are connected via serial and ps2, since theres no actual bus connection, the ports should maintain integrity just through conductivity, but at the same time i'm not sure if parallel puts out current so you mat need a 5 volt adapter to feed your drive with electricity. and to answer your questions, of course it didn't work. what kind of idiot would take the time to write a driver for that contraption just to convert the pins and connections through 4 different architectures, also the cruzer usb stick has its own firmware specific to the usb architecture with its own applications and launchers which encrypt the actual memory module. it would take years or reverse engineering to get this to work if done by one individual, but it is more than possible for someone with insurmountable spare time.

This won't work 'cause there is no voltage regulator in the chain and the current of an old 25p-RS232 (about 10 mA) would not be sufficient to drive a memory stick via USB interface. The 12 Volts coming from the RS232 might ruin the thumbdrive.

It's a USB flash drive connected to a USB to PS/2 adapter, connected to a PS/2 to serial adapter, connected to a serial to parallel adapter. Guss you would use it to access data on the USB-drive from an old computer without a USB-port or something, if someone could make it work.

USB has 5 volts.

It could work. But the parallel port is only 8 bits, and the new computers are 64 bits. That's why there are no more parallel ports on today's computers. It could work if you have an 8 bit computer, but writing those drivers is really really really hard.
