Sci, I didn't look at the links you gave but the answer is a KVM Switch. It stands for Keyboard, Video, Mouse. It hooks several devices into one place so you only need one keyboard, video, mouse to run several PC's. Make sure not to get the cheaper one with serial mouse ports. For you, I'd say to get a 4 port KVM. The cables are special and extra. I'd buy this from EBAY myself. Good luck.<br><br>Hermskii <p></p><i></i>

One Mouse is UBS and other on is PS/2. I was looking at those KVM .I can use other Mouse UBS it have adapter which I use it for PS/2 instand of UBS. KVM HAS UBS but all UBS key board and mouse.So it look like I have to get other moniter after all.I Switch moniter back from this computer to new one then Back.Oh Boy it made so much noise I did it.It was turn off I switch it. and rejust setting ARGH.<img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/nerd.gif" /><img border=0 src="http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/images/emoticons/devil.gif" /><br>WHich take me two hour to finale fix my setting<br> <p></p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub44.ezboard.com/bschwantzsredeemerarenaserver.showUserPublicProfile?gid=scify>Scify</A> at: 3/4/03 10:37:09 pm<br></i>

Sci:<br><br>From your post, I take it you have 2 mice, 2 keyboards and one monitor. If this is true, why don't you just leave the mice and keyboards hooked up to their respective computers, and use the switch only for the monitor. I looked into this a while back, as I have two computers down here in my studio, and this seemed the easiest way. Of course, I was just going to buy a monitor switch only (not the KVM). They make these also...as it turned out, the cost of the switch, plus a new monitor cable cost almost as much as buying a used monitor, so I went with the used monitor. Hope this helps...<br><br>Bo <p></p><i></i>
