Switch for Vista/XP

bmaxi · 2008-06-17 21:08:13

I was hoping to run two desktops, one XP, one Vista on the one monitor using this,http://www.dabs.ie/productview.aspx?Quicklinx=47W5 but I can't find out if it is Vista compatible. Has anybody ever done this?

Shouldn't be an issue, KVM switchs that have a manual button as well as a software switcher should work no matter the OS.

I'm using one thats over 3 years old to switch between an XP Desktop, Linux Media Server and Vista laptop.
