Re: VGA Out From PC to VGA In to Laptop

Maxivista is a "software solution" running over the network. If the OS or network is the problem "Maxivista" is dead too. The soulution is your KVM switch and a real monitor, not a laptop.

I may be able to use this if it's compatible with Server 2003. Again the only problem is when there's an OS or network problem. That's why I was looking for a hardware solution.

Comparison
-----------------

Remote access/desktop software (such as VNC, Windows Remote Desktop or
Laplink): The desktop screen of a remote computer is displayed on a
viewer computer. You can control the remote PC from the keyboard/mouse
viewer PC

vs.

Maxivista which has three modes:

#1: Maxivista remote control mode: Both computers computers are
standing next to each other and you can control the 2nd ("remote") PC
from the mouse and keyboard of the main PC when you move the mouse
cursor to that computer. It works rather like a keyboard and mouse
switch

#2:  Maxivista extended screen mode: The desktop of the main PC is
extended to the 2nd PC. In this mode you only use the monitor of the
2nd PC without controlling that PC at all.

#3: Maxivista mirroring mode: The desktop of the primary PC can be
mirrored to the 2nd PC's screen. No remote controlling at all
