I have been playing; and using a PS2 keyboard through the KVM to Windows 2000 only gives me a repeat of 8 characters.

If I enable the Accessibility Option of FilterKeys; I get unlimited repeats=
(like I do with a direct PS2 keyboard), but the repeats are sloooooooow; so=
the KVM must be working fine (I guess the fact that Windows 98 is OK holds<= BR> this up as true).

This must be a HID setting in Windows 2000; Can anybody with a USB keyboard=
connected directly to the PC shed some light on this; do I need to put some=
extra MS drivers on to support a HID keyboard?

Steve

Works fine for me with a MS Natural Pro keyboard (MS drivers).

I wanted to use the extra buttons on the keyboard (mail, my computer etc) which did not seem to work under the PS2 keyboard connector, but do work under USB connection.  However, you do need to swap 'active' PCs via t= he
button on the KVM, rather than the scroll lock on the keyboard.

Has anybody else noticed that under Windows 2000, you only get 8 characters=
with an auto-repeat, but Windows 98 works normally?

Is there a registry hack to stop this, as it is annoying; but at least
Windows 98 is ok, which is where this would be a real pain for games.

In case anyone in the East London area was looking for these PC-
World in Beckton had a stack left on a shelf.  No price tags but
when I took it to the till it was =A347.  Did someone find cheap all-<= BR> in-one cables somewhere for these?

Cheers,
