Hello techy people
I got me a problem on upgrading my system to AM3 Gigabyte GA-MA785GT-UD3H mobo with a x2 550 AMD cpu.
Seems my mobo has only one PS2 port and looks to be for either mouse or KB
and i guess UBS port for the other input device.
I have used a 4 port KVM for about 7 years or so to control my PC's and now it seems i carnt with this new mobo.The mouse in the KVM is USB but i use a converter to PS2.
Keyboard on the PS2 port works fine with the KVM but using a PS2 to USB converter on the UBS port doesn't.
At the moment i use a second USB mouse to use the PC.
So the PS2 to USB converter didnt work , So i bought a Konig USB to PS2 adapter giving me two FEMALE PS2 sockets.This also didnt work.Using both PS2 sockets for the mouse/KB and just the mouse on its own also failed.
KB into the mobo direct ,using the PS2 port works but the mouse using Konig adapter still fails.
Infact my mouse on the KVM into the gigabyte doesnt work,unless the mouse is direct to the USB port on the mobo.
If your eyes glazzed over then i'm sorry..but im now open to offers ,ideas or even a solution....
P.S Though i use the mouse right handed and been left handed ,It doesn't give me too many problems using a second mouse with my left.I just want my desk space back for more junk to collect on......
