Keyboards/Mice

[Guest exec@chicagorsvp.com]

Hi,

 

We have 1 PC with 2 cloned monitors. The monitors are in seperate

offices, about 30 feet apart. What we need to do is to be able to

have each monitor have it's own keyboard & mouse to control the

screen. We are running XP.

 

My questions are:

 

1) Can you do thing with Windows configuration, or some type of

inexpensive software or hardware.

 

2) Since the monitors are cloned, I assume that what happens on one

happens on the other.

 

3) If we wanted 2 seperate monitors on the same PC, what is involved

in that?

 

If I could get some help, it would really be appreciated.

 

Thanks!

Go to an electronics store and get a KVM switch which will allow two

keyboards/mice for one computer. You'll probably have to get an

extension so that it can be used 30 feet away. I trust there are no

walls in that 30 foot span. Note that only one keyboard/mouse can be

used at a time and you can toggle between the two.

I believe you need a system with two VGA.
