name9902 Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 Currently i have a desk set up with multiple monitors and they go to different comps...I was wondering if it was possible to have 1 mouse and 1 keyboard for multiple comps?Having more than 1 mouse lying around is getting kinda old Quote Link to post Share on other sites
murtu52 Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 yes, you need to buy a device called a KVM. You will have one mouse, one keyboard, and one monitor, and it will connect to the KVM. The KVM will connect to mulitple computers, and you can switch between computers with the switch of a button. Check online or at your local computer store. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
name9902 Posted February 23, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 eh eh eh, i have 2 KVM switches, but I have 2 comps on one and 1 that is no longer on it, so when i switch the comps one will go black. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
murtu52 Posted February 23, 2005 Report Share Posted February 23, 2005 then, don't connect the monitor, just the keyboard and mouse, and have a monitor for each computer. That should work, shouldn't it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Gwyrox732 Posted February 24, 2005 Report Share Posted February 24, 2005 there is a program i used once that let you scroll off the screen to, say, the left, and the mouse would end up on the otherr monitor...it worked through a lan, i forget what it was called, though, sorry.
