Has anyone sucessfully used a Belkin 2 port KVM switch with audio support
and built in cabling between Win XP and Vista Home premium 32 bit using a
USB/PS2 adaptor for a wireless mouse and keyboard. If so how did you get it
to work? Belkin don't seem able to give a staright answer. Cannot find
anything in MS KB.

TIA
John

Problems usually occur with adapters. KVM works well with almots
every operating systems.

Wireless mouse / keyboard and USB / PS/2 adapters usually cause the
most problems.

There is no reason why a KVM should not work with Vista as they generally
require no support from the operating system. KVM switches pick up their
commands to switch direct from the keyboard stream. The Video, keyboard,
mouse and (where applicable) sound interfaces are independant of the
operating system.
