just saw very basic midi keyboard selling very cheap indeed, one left, dont know if i can use one thru the particular port, it is supposed 2 plug in thru midi interface, and on inspecting the computer at home,the closest thing that looks like the wire on it is near where my speaker and line in plugs are and is actually a joystick plug(has a little icon of joystick next 2 it), is that the same one i should use for midi????
i havent a clue as is blindingly obvious, help please u guys, i just want this thing 2 mess bout with if this is the right plug

this is a MIDI/Joystick port






and this is the MIDI cable that goes from the port to the keyboard




so yes it will work for you
