KVM switch keyboard issue?
I have a TrendNet TK-400 KVM switch which connects via PS/2 connectors and a VGA cable. I've hooked up hundreds of computers on the KVM and have had no trouble, until now. One particular computer, MSI motherboard (K9VGM-V) will not recognize the keyboard over the KVM. I can hook up a keyboard directly and it works fine. But, over the KVM, only the mouse and video work.
Any ideas on why and if there's a way around the issue?
Thanks for any thoughts on the matter.

Sometimes one of my computers won't recognize the keyboard when booting up connected to the KVM switch, usually if I switch the KVM to that computer *before* booting that computer It will find the keyboard. I think that particular computer may not recognize the "fake" signals the KVM switch sends to it when it's not set that particular computer. I don't know if this is your issue, but it's worth a try.
