what shit? what would work right? uh??
you didn't install those shitty drivers discs, did you? just plug the usb, toss the driver disc into the trash and you'll be fine. -- if ps2 doesnt work then your port is fucked. ps2 is the most fucking basic primitive connector and it's gotta work unless the port itself is physically damaged. -- ps (not2) - please be kind to my eyes |

if you're still around-- uninstall any logitech software/ keyboard driver/ crapola on your machine.
computers don't need special software to get keyboard input. |

the problem (with the kmd switch...the keyboard i just spilled tea on) was hardware, not software: laptops have don't have fucking basic primitive connectors!!!! it'd be a total waste of space!!!
signal flow: ps/2 keyboard --> kmd switch [0] --> ps/2 input on tower ps/2 keyboard --> kmd switch [1] --> ps/2 to usb adapter --> usb input on laptop symptoms: when switch is set to laptop, key sequence PAGE UP/PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN switches to tower just fine. when switch is set to tower, key sequence PAGE UP/PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN does nothing until 14 or 15 attempt. [possible explanation #1] ps/2 to usb adapter is the problem. now you have messy signal coming out the other end. works fine for most things. but not clean enough for the laptop to bounce a signal back to the switch for it to flip. could be that the whole thing depends on the recieving computer recognizing the key sequence "PAGE UP/PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN" as "FLIP SWITCH" and not "PAGE UP/PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN." but this makes no sense as the problem occurs when the switch is set to the tower, not the laptop. [possible explanation #2] even if the switch itself is engaged in the entirely wasteful activity of constantly monitoring the signal for the occasional PAGE UP/PAGE UP/PAGE DOWN sequence.... i don't know... theoretically that should work perfectly since the signal always comes from the same keyboard directly to switch. hence my belief in [possible explanation #3] gremlins it's a moot point as i now have a usb keyboard, and i no longer need the ps/2->usb adapter... but am now faced with a different problem: i now have a ps/2 mouse, a usb keyboard, and a ps/2 kmd switch. ![]() anyway..... this computer hasn't had a clean install in years (like to do one every six months) and has so much computer AIDS its not funny. needs to be rebuilt and when i get a chance i'll hackintosh it, i swear.

it depends on how you define "working". I can turn it off, but it always drips.

It felt pretty manly. |

my initial problem was climatic. frozen H2O brought massive system failure.
once operational status was resumed and spare parts could be obtained for the antiquated device, repair of the liquid dispenser was not problematic. yes. very much like a real man that day. |
