thisiam Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 so i got KVM switch and i hooked it up and i can see computer A but when i switch to computer B it only gives me a black screen. if i switch to computer B and unplug the VGA cable from the KVM switch my desktop for computer B shows up but as soon as i plug in the VGA cable for comp A back into the switch it goes black again. anyone run into this problem before?? could it be the video driver? thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparda Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 When you switch try turning your moniotor off and on again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VaKo Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 Try it on some other computers, if it still does the same get it RTM'd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari6502 Posted December 29, 2006 Share Posted December 29, 2006 I had a cheapy kvm that one particular comp.(may have been the video card in that comp) couldnt push past 60hz. unplug and go direct to monitor, and it did 85hz fine. I chalked it up to not enough power. I believe said comp was a shuttle, with agp card installed, not onboard video. other tower comp got to 85hz fine through the KVM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
