How to start consoles (Xbox and PS2) automatically?
« on: September 04, 2009, 01:00:23 pm »
I have purchased the adapters from Ultramark and have a KVM switch purchased and on the way. I want to be able to switch between my PC, Xbox, and PS2 on my Cab. The power adapter is one which starts monitor and PC automatically when powered up, but even when plugged into the adapter the Xbox and PS2 do not start automatically. I have custom dashboards and HDs on both, so unless I am installing a game, I should not need to open the CD trays very much. I really want to find a way yo make them start automatically without having to open the cab door to push the power switch on the Xbox or PS2. Any way to make them power up automatically? Thanks!

Someone created a way for the xbox to be powered on using the dvd remote, It's a board you have to install to the xbox itself. http://xir.us/default.aspx. For PS2, I'm not quite sure.
