Looking for a KVM switch... but backwards.

So, thanks in advance for anyone that can help.

Long story short, I'm looking to switch between 2 stations, with separate keyboards/monitors but a single PC.

I currently have 2 PCs for gaming. The primary one is connected to 3 24" monitors and a single 22" touchscreen monitor in an obutto revolution game station. This is the one i upgrade, then use the spare parts to add to my secondary computer.

The secondary computer, about 6' away has 2 27" monitors and is at a standard desk and chair.

I also have a HTC Vive connected to the primary computer.

I have this set up so for flight/racing sims I can use the primary computer and for strategy/fps games I can use the more comfortable normal desk and chair.

This has been fine until my secondary computer requires a complete rebuild and as I already have a working pc would be keen to avoid the cost of building another pc.

I'd ideally like some sort of switch, like you can get for HDMIs so I can select say '1' and it boots up the game stations screens/keyboard/mouse

'2' for the desk based monitor etc.

'3' for the Vive, plus one of the 2 stations available.

I've been unable to find a solution and it seems fairly peculiar what I'm trying to do. Any help would be appreciated.

certain keys on my keyboard dont work when "cold"

Hi guys, i have a Lenovo Y520-15IKBN (80WK) and certain keys on the keyboard don't work (e,g,h,8,9,Fn...) but only when the weather is cold. for example in the winter it used to work after certain amount of time when i first boot the laptop and stops working when i stop using it for a while, but now that the weather is hot it works just fine except for the first couple of minutes or when its colder. of course i do realise that it has nothing to do with the outside weather but with the temperature of the computer itself. can someone explain to me why this is happening and how it should be fixed as i cannot take it to the tech service until july even though it's still under warranty because i need it for school. ps: an external keyboard works fine.

Old PC with a Foxconn n15235 motherboard needs drivers! Help!!

So my Pc corrupted and I had to fresh install windows on it, but now its missing 3 drivers and one of them is for the Ethernet controller! I've tried searching everywhere for the windows 7 drivers but all I seem to find are some dodgey programs saying they will install it for me. Problem is without the ethernet driver I can't bloody connect to the internet. I've been using a USB to try get some drivers on there, but they just end up being useless programmes . I'm also a bit of a noob at these things, I don't understand where to find the names of things in my PC, I've opened it up but I don't understand whats significant and what isnt. If someone has the drivers and can teach me how to install them I'd be very appreciative! Submitted April 29, 2018 at 02:47PM by darrilsteady https://ift.tt/2r76xMZ
