less function, more frustration

00Q, Newegg
14 March 2013
  • Pros: It works once either of the computers' OS's starts. Microsoft wirelss mouse worked. I guess they tried?
  • Cons: Does not show boot screen, or boot loader. Useless for dual boot systems, or systems requiring bios adjustment. Wired keyboard would sometimes work, sometimes not.

Saber, Newegg
28 November 2012
  • Pros: Good while they work.
  • Cons: These switches seem to have a very short lifespan. Our company was using them for a while, so I decided to give one a whirl at home. OOPS! The company I work for start...

KVM Switch

Newegg
15 November 2012
  • Pros: It works as it says.
  • Cons: I would prefer a switch that had an actual switch on the controller. This one makes you switch by double pressing scroll lock. This is just a personal preference, that...

keyless, Newegg
4 November 2012
  • Pros: decent basic affordable unit

Works with Windows 7.

MP, Newegg
9 October 2012
  • Pros: Works with Windows 7! There should be a way to search Newegg for KVMs that support EDID information sharing, because this is one of only a few I've found that supports...
  • Cons: If you're hooking your speakers or headphones up to this KVM, be sure to plug in both audio input cables. Otherwise, if you switch to an input that doesn't have the au...

gorik, Newegg
3 October 2012
  • Pros: It does switch between inputs consistently.
  • Cons: the Screen goes dark periodically for a couple of seconds and then returns. It must be sensing for the other input. This is very annoying. Second you must have a separ...

Quality decline?

EB, Newegg
1 May 2012
  • Summary: I actually sent my second one back due to problems indicated above, and this is my third. I have been in contact with IOGEAR and they cannot provide any insight or...
  • Pros: My first IOGEAR GCS632U lasted 3 years and worked perfectly except for minor resolution issues. When it stopped working I bought another one. It does work, some of the...
  • Cons: Although my new switch supports the exact computers as my last one, it cannot seem to function for more than a couple of hours before I lose the mouse and keyboard on ...
