TrendNet KVM switch blurry

I just bought a new TrendNet KVM switch (TK-209). Port 1 connects to a high-end HP laptop and Port 2 connects to a fast Dell Inspiron desktop. I'm using a 24-inch LCD HD monitor. I'm happy with the functionality of the switch, but the display is a little bit blurry. I've read online that I need to upgrade my cables and that will fix this.

1- If I upgrade the cables, will that for sure fix the problem, despite the fact that the KVM switch is cheap? Could the cheapness of the switch defeat the benefit of the better cables?
2- Should I return this and buy a better switch?
3- If the cables would solve this, what kind should I get? I don't want to spend a fortune, but crystal clear display is extremely important to me.

Thanks!
