I need to display multiple PC screens on one monitor (projector) all at the same time, what device can I use?
I want to be able to connect 4 PC's to one projector input and "slice" the output so that all 4 are displayed at the same time in one quarter of the screen.
Please help me out.
Any reason you can't just generate all 4 screens on the one pc ? Would seem a lot simpler & without thinking about it, at a flying guess much cheaper too ..!?!?
I could always do that, but as a last resort. The processes/applications I run on the different PC's would be difficult to run from one PC and remote console software will not do it (low screen resolution / no DirectX)
I personally haven't seen anything that will do this with vga connectors. I've seen video camera setups like this but they're all rca connectors...
I suspect that it'd have to be a hardware software solution. a hardware box like a kvm to accept the vga connections and software running that would divide the display up into virtual monitors and display the contents.Quote:

Virtual operating system software ... run as many copies of any or even different operating systems as you like, at once ...
Here's a screen shot .

so you can definately do want you want with it ... I've had I think 6 lots of operating systems running concurrently (there must be a limit to how many but I don't know ....)
My 'most impressed with' software ;)
VM WARE kicks a$$.. i love that program, just make sure you have plenty of hdd space and sufficient ram to run multiple OSes at the same time.
using vmware i cannot play games and my cpu is sliced.
Have you guys tried virtual pc from connectix? How does it compare to VMware? I use virtual pc, thats why I ask.Quote:
