Troubleshooting

  1. WHEN TURNING THE COMPUTER ON, THE KEYBOARD IS NOT DETECTED, OR A KEYBOARD / MOUSE ERROR MESSAGE IS DISPLAYED.If the computer’s BIOS does not support USB boot-up, the system may be unable to detect the mouse and keyboard during startup. Please ensure that your PC BIOS supports USB boot-up, and upgrade your PC’s firmware if necessary.
  2. THE COMPUTER’S BIOS IS CORRECTLY CONFIGURED BUT THE COMPUTER IS STILL UNABLE TO DETECT THE MOUSE AND KEYBOARD.Be sure to directly connect the USB KVM switch to the USB port on the PC’s motherboard rather than through a port on a PCI card, Card Bus, or USB Hub.
  3. WHEN SWITCHING TO PC2, THE COMPUTER STILL DISPLAYS PC1.The KVM switch may not function correctly while a computer is powered off or still booting up. Ensure that the second PC is powered on and use the hotkey to switch between computers.
  4. THE IMAGE ON MY MONITOR IS NOT CLEAR.Check the following:– Verify that all video monitor cables are Inserted properly.– Try lowering the resolution and refresh rate of your monitor.– Try using a shorter video cable.– Try rescanning for VGA signal from monitor again.
