Try this - join two cable together, bypassing the kvm.  See if it still
looks bad.  Some video cards don't have good output stages, and don't
withstand being extended.  The same can go for the output stages on the
kvm.  Use the shortest practical leads, where possible.

There's no way to do that. These are custom cables that have single/special D-Sub connectors on one end that pick up the video and vga signals, and breakout cables on the other end for plugging into the connections on the computer. The strange thing is, this is a much more expensive KVM than the one I replaced, which worked perfectly. I was only trying a replacement because of a different issue I'm having with some strange interference between my phone and my computer wiring. (When I sit down at my desk, the device that picks up my handset and switches to my headset, picks up the handset without being asked to, and at the same time, the mouse and keyboard freeze on my computer - but, I digress)
