Converting Simulator to USB?

[austinflyer]

I have a real flight flight simulator that has the game port plug instead of a USB plug....I was thinking about converting it to USB....any one know if this is possible. If so, how would I convert it?

Based on the recommendation from someone else here I bought a USB adaptor from Radio Shack. Cat number 26-164.

I set switch in the number 2 "joystick A" position.

The adaptor was less then $15.

Seems to work okay.
