Well you can't use the adapter that came with your mouse, the protocol is different. The mouse logic is setup to be either a USB or a serial port, and uses voltage level to sense which mode it is in. The good news is you can buy an adapter: http://www.provantage.com/buy-7tdwu0...9-shopping.htm. This is one I found by googling USB serial adapter.
