* Make sure that you have used the correct USB cable with DATA lines to connect the OTG port for the Raspberry to the computer. You may have decided to use a USB hub instead of a Y-cable, and **it won't work**. Use good cables and follow the instructions :)

- In very rare cases, some motherboards contain a buggy BIOS that does not understand the composite USB device because BIOS doesn't implement the USB stack correctly. In this case, we can suggest the [Arduino HID emulator](arduino_hid.md) from v0 platform with v2.

* If you are using a USB hub or USB PCI controller, this may not be handled by your BIOS. Try to use another USB port. Some ports may have a built-in hub on the motherboard and a buggy BIOS that can't handle it.

* The BIOS does not support absolute mouse mode, which is preferred by Pi-KVM. In this case, [you can enable relative positioning mode](mouse.md).

<summary><b>Mass-storage device working (I can boot an image from Pi-KVM v2+), but keyboard/mouse does not</b></summary>
* In very rare cases, some motherboards contain a buggy BIOS that does not understand the composite USB device because BIOS doesn't implement the USB stack correctly. In this case, we can suggest the [Arduino HID emulator](arduino_hid.md) from v0 platform with v2+. Thus the Pi-KVM will be connected by two USB cables to the motherboard: one of them will be responsible for the keyboard and mouse, the other for everything else.

<summary><b>I can't get into UEFI/FileVault when booting my Mac using Pi-KVM v2+</b></summary>
* The problem is specific to early-model Macs and does not occur on ARM-based Macs (Apple M1 or so). UEFI does not initialize the keyboard of the composite device during boot, however, if you use the standard keyboard to get to the UEFI/FileVault menu, you will see that the keyboard, mouse, and mass storage will work fine. In this case, we can suggest the [Arduino HID emulator](arduino_hid.md) from v0 platform with v2+. Thus the Pi-KVM will be connected by two USB cables to the Mac: one of them will be responsible for the keyboard and mouse, the other for everything else.
