I recently upgraded one of my computers with a newer mobo & AMD Athlon II X2 250 cpu... The new mobo only has one ps2 port.... I tried usb to ps2 adapters on my existing ps2 KVM switch but 90% of the time the mouse or keyboard (which ever one is plugged into the adapter) will not work... I've tried a ps2 to ps2 y adapter and a ps2 to usb y adapter with no luck...
Plugging the keyboard and mouse via adapters into the computer work about 50% of the time... Plugging in a ps2 keyboard (or usb keyboard) and usb mouse directly into the computer work 100% of the time...
I have 4 computers... Presently I have two kvm ps2 switches but would like to reduce it down to one kvm 4 port usb...
Anyone recommend a good kvm with 4 usb ports...
Thanks kindly

I've been happy with Iogear. The models I use are for two computers, USB connections and VGA output. I have three of them in use at present. I like them because they are inexpensive and come with all cables. Mine use the 'Scroll Lock' key on the keyboard for switching, which is much more convienient than a cabled switch as the PCs are about 15 feet away. And mine works fine with a wireless mouse and KB. Not all KVMs do. I haven't tried one of their 4 input KVMs, but I assume they are similar. If you have DVI, they have models for that also.

Which ever brand/model you get, make sure it lists win7 compatibility like IOgear does on some of their models
I just bought the GCS632U
*IOGEAR’s Display Emulation Technology provides the EDID support for Windows 7
