hi
i was wondering if anyone could shed any light on a problem i have with the iogear kvm switch that i have bought (iogear miniview gcs632u).
i used the belkin one initially but oh my god what a pain, i decided to try the iogear one, but agian i am having problems. i have a mac mini running mac os x (not intel one) and a pc(xp home with sp2) which my girlfriend uses, as i am sure you know i want to use one monitor(mines a belinea 15"), but after having followed instructions i am unable to switch between computers, the switch stays on the first computer i connect it too, i am using a wireless mouse and keyboard(microsoft one not apple keyboard and mouse,it is in compatable list on iogear website) i have tried every thing in instruction booklet but i cant seem to activate an hot keys or switching keys as instructed in manual.
help please
karl

i think that wireless mouse/keyboard combos tend to have trouble with kvm switches in general. try calling iogear, because if it says specifically that it supports your keyboard/mouse, then they should have an explanation
