Windows Keyboard And Mouse From Another Computer

This IOGEAR GCS110-4 4-Port KVMP switch is my first purcahse of this type of gear...should have bought one years ago. I had checked out one of the other brands, but the manufacturer's web-site had the same photo and description for two models, very confusing. I am using this switch with three computer, Win7, Win8.1 and a Linux rig. I keep the fourth port open for testing other computers, no need to connect one being tested to a separate keyboard and mouse setup. This switch allows me to easily switch between computers via keyboard shortcuts. I have a Logitech Keyboard and Mouse which share a single wireless USB dongle, plugging the dongle into the keyboard USB port of the monitor area of the switch allows me to use the keyboard and mouse on all computers. I did have to uninstall the Logitech software which allowed for custom keyboard layout (volume up/down, next track, etc.) as it seemed to conflict with the way the KVMP switch emulated Keyboard and Mouse Control...not an issue for me in this case. I am not a hard-core gamer, thus do not have a mouse with 92 buttons on it..more of a FPS and Flight Sim guy here. I like the fact that I can switch the keyboard/mouse, Vidoe and USB separately from the audio, that is I can have music playing on one computer, switch the Keyboard/Mouse, Video, and USB to another computer and still hear the music from the first computer. I have all my external drives and printers connected directly to the Win7 computer working as a server for all my data. I have a USB hub connected to the KVMP input which is accessed by whichever computer I am using for such things as my web-cam, joystick, multimedia card reader, and ID CAC Card Reader. I started taking IT classes and now I can easily do remote access, learned how to access Windows Shared Folders from the Linux box...and more, having the computers side by side with one control system is a Godsend. I would recommend this switch to anyone considering such a purchase.

I have a MacBook and a Windows PC side by side with two monitors. I use just this one keyboard. The Flow software that comes with the Logitech MX Master 3 Mouse combined with this Keyboard blew my mind. I just seamlessly switch back and forth between the two by moving my mouse to the other screen. The keyboard follows the mouse. The Craft Keyboard has a great feel to it and is sturdy, with a little weight to it. Love the knob for volume and other app-specific functions. Works great on Mac and PC. Highly recommend this combo.

Bought it to switch keyboard, mouse and headphones between 3 computers (windows and Ubuntu). Works as expected with no delay when switching between the computers.

I use this product to share one monitor/keyboard/mouse between my Windows 7 machine and my Mac Mini. I have no issues at all. Very easy to set up. Great product.

I wanted a Bluetooth adapter to allow the connection of a keyboard and mouse to my desktop. Works great with Windows 7.

I switch between a Window 7, Windows XP, and Mac computer with no problems. Once I turned off the mouse emulation I was able to use MS Sidewinder. No problems with wired or wireless keyboard/mouse.

Hooked it up and it works. You may have to unplug your keyboard or mouse and plug it back in to get the secound computer to reconise it.

Works will with my computer and because the mouse and keyboard use the same USB port it frees up space for other uses

I'm an early riser and my computer room doesn't have alot of windows. Squinting at my old keyboard every morning was getting to my old eyes and did nothing for my disposition. Since I purchased the illuminated Logitech keyboard I can sit down with my first cup of coffee and a nice glow under every key. Sooooo much easier on the eyes! No more strain, no more squinting, and I wouldn't live without it. My daughter is getting one for Christmas this year and I would recommend this wonderful product to everyone.

I use this product to connect my keyboard with my computer. It runs windows 7 64 bit and it recognized the connection instantly. You don't need to install anything. The cord is very long which is great. It also is very durable.
