I started using a Razer Pro Solutions mouse about a year ago and found it to be considerably better in detailed tasks than other mice I’ve owned. I never got to worked up about a mouse and so mostly have used low to mid end mice.

The big snafu with the Razer is that it will NOT work thru my kvm whereas many other do. Talking to Razer tech is a waste of time. They just tell you they do not support its use thru KVM. There mice are powered mice, and I think that is why they have trouble with KVM connection.

But cutting to the chase here:
Can any experienced photoshop users suggest a mouse that is known to work thru kvm and is highly accurate, works well in detailed photoshop techniques?

No idea what KVM is supposed to mean but maybe you want to consider a small graphic tablet? For use with Photoshop, I wouldn’t waste my money on a high-end mouse because even the finest is still inferior to a graphic tablet.

KVM = Keyboard/Video/Mouse switch, a device for using the same peripherals on multiple computers.

All mice are powered. Does it not work on both computers, or just on one?

Install driver on both computers? Some KVM switches provide measures to auxiliary-power the devices connected.
