Trouble with mouse.. (for Computer techs)

I was trying to hookup a ps2 mouse (with scroll), on an older cpu which has a serial port for a mouse.

The mouse I'm trying to install is a AOpen 2 button with scroll. I used an adapter that converts ps2 to serial. The adapter I bought seperately at some electronics supply shop.

I know the PS2 uses a 5volt system while the serial a 10 volt system.


But is there any simple way to get the cpu to detect the mouse and use it?!


Thanks!
