PS2 Splitter problem

Guest

Hey all, I have a laptop with only one PS/2 port and I am running winxp Pro with SP1. I have a PS2 keyboard and mouse and when I plug both into the splitter only one device works. I can unplug either one and they work fine but when both are plugged in only the mouse or keyboard works.

Any thoughts on this?

How about using a USB mouse instead. Probable cause is that the power in
the notebook is not sufficient to utilize both keyboard and mouse on the
same port.
