How can I connect a pen tablet to two PCs? I am using the KVM switch for the mouse already and I don't want any more manual switches.

Some KVM switches have a USB port on them. Sticking a hub on that and all your peripherals off that is the best way. Some devices have issues with this, and I've never tried it with a Wacom.

Mouse and keyboard are PS/2. Are there KVM switches with PS/2 and USB?

Also can check into a PS/2 to USB converter. Or just update the mouse and keyboard.

The adapter does not fucntion correctly. I think it can wait for future upgrades in a few years or when mouse and KB die.
