Hi all,
I just received my semi-custom WASD brown mechanical keyboard. First of all, I'm truly impressed with this keyboard + company. I feel like choosing brown switches was the right choice as my wife is still complaining! lol .. I was about the buy blue - which would be a nightmare for her
Anyway, the reason I'm posting is about KVM compatibility. I have an IOGEAR 2-port USB KVM switch model # GCS22U and I was using it with my Microsoft Sidewinder x4 keyboard + g9x mouse before. It was working perfectly. However, it is not working with my new WASD mechanical keyboard. The mouse still works but the keyboard is like dead (no numlock light). I know its a cheap KVM switch but I was wondering if there is more compatible KVM that I can use to make this work with my setup (2 PCs)?
Or are KVM switches (in general) not really compatible with ALL mechanical keyboards?
BTW, I use my KVM switch just for mouse and keyboard. I actually have two monitors for each of my omputers so I don't use the VGA video part of the KVM switch. Is there a USB switch only (not including speakers/mic, vga ports - just USB) .. and will it work with mechanical keyboard too? Like a KM switch(without the V)
Thanks!
