Do someone know why some KVM doesnt work with all computers?

Why some KVM shock me with some current? Do they need another ground?

any electrical shocks are not good and a sign of poor grounding.
No need to apologize for your english, but please enter your country in your user profile.

There are different types of KVM -USB and Ps/2

Needs to specify "some" and "doesn't work".

For example, if you have a KVM that has only USB connectors, then yes, some computers may not have USB keyboard support. And yes, I have seen KVM switches that cause keyboard and screen anomalies on random computers while working just fine with others.
