Default An XP question

Thanks guys - sorted. Thought I'd tried every combination. ;-)

Anyone recommend a decent KVM switch (PS2)? My last one was just fine -

doesn't have one.

I've been using an Aten CS64A (4 port PS2 and audio) without any
problems for a few years now, mainly switching between FreeBSD and XP
but have had Win98, Vista and Windows 7 connected at times with no
problem. It uses keypad num-lock and * followed by 1, 2, 3 or 4 to
switch. It's a compact unit with the 4 cables hard wired into it. I see
Rapid currently have them at £27.50 + delivery +VAT

Stuart Tyrrell (STD developments/advantage6) used to sell modified KVMs that
worked with acorn/windows machines. They may still do so (at a price).
