I'd like to get a multi lcd setup soon, can i run two computers at the same time and "switch" them back n forth between the 2 monitors but use the same keybaord & mouse ?

Manowar · 10-16-2004, 11:03 AM

yeah, you could use Remote Desktop to do that

If there is a dual converter, then yea.

If you get a KVM switch make sure to use a PS2 version because the USB are slow.

OK, now this sounds cool, how do I set something like this up and can it be more than 2 computers since I have a desktop, laptop and an e-mac on my office desk with 3 damn keyboards and mice.

It has to be a dual out put KVM switch.

if you had multiple kvm's its a pain to use and probably start to get noticeable signal degradation.

i had mine setup with two lcd's so i could either have dualhead on my main machine or switch the secondary monitor (which used dvi) could switch to analog which went to a kvm to two test computers i used. i left them on a separte kb / mouse, wireless, which i just hid when i wasnt using. it got the job done and since the second two computers werent important the signal loss didnt bother me. i have two samsung 191T+'s, they're pretty sweet.

if you use a KVM swtich you can use 1 montior 1 keyboard 1 mouse of multiple comptuers

lloyd · 10-16-2004, 11:25 AM

the one on the right has a "source" button which would switch it to analog and then show on of the other computers...
