I just changed from my old skool KVM switch to a new Linksys dealie-o from that buy.com deal. I have a Win2k and a NT machine. Using a PS2 Intellimouse (ie wheelmouse).

Here's my issue. On the NT machine, the wheel is no longer functioning. It works as a button, but the wheel functionality isn't. All is fine on the 2k machine.

Any ideas?

It must be how the NT machine is seeing the KVM switch....The switch has to emulate a mouse when you are switched over to the other machine.

It's wierd, cuz it knows there is a 3rd "button" but not the wheel. And there is no additional driver for windows for the wheel mouse, and when I go to the mouse settings, there is no configuration for the wheel. Prior to using the switch, the wheel worked fine.:confused:
