Hello,
Since I have a DVI splitter working with my main desktop (Windows 7 x64) and two Dell LCD screens, what if I want to introduce a DVI KVM switch into the mix and a second PC (XP x64)?
Will a DVI splitter work on the console (single head) side of a dual port DVI KVM?
Or do I have to buy a 2 port DVI KVM that also has (2) two ports for the console side monitors?
I wish to use a USB keyboard and mouse too so are there any recommednations for this scenario?
DVI out, USB Keyboard and USB mouse for (2) PC's> DVI KVM > 2 DVI monitor flat screen LCD's with a keyboard and mouse.
I want to enjoy the extended desktop for each PC whe I switch to it via the KVM.
thanks all.
