There are USB keyboards, they are more common than PS2 keyboards these days. See your local computer shop, or NewEgg.
Your keyboard will probably not work in your mouse port.
There are little plastic adapters for USB/PS2 conversion, they are commonly used for mice.
They would not help you, since your PS2 port is broken.

You can buy little convertors that change a ps2 (keyboard) to usb.
These are very cheap little things and you can buy them from ebay or amazon.
If you could also get a convertor that changes it to the serial port on the back of your computer. But I would stick with the usb convertor.
Hope this helps.

If your computer is not working properly while you are working on it, it could be a problem with device drivers, hardware or software.
