I have the aorus fv43u and it has a built in KVM switch. From my understanding, I can connect my laptop and main PC to the monitor and have 1 set of peripherals to control both of them. Right now I have my peripherals connected to my main PC, which is connected to the monitor via display port and a usb-b cable. My laptop is connected via hdmi and usb-c to usb-c. (I had to look up someone else config cuz i couldnt figure it out to save my life). Now when I use the KVM switch, my laptop screen shows up on the monitor, but my mouse and keyboard don’t work. Are my M&K supposed to be connected to the monitor? Isn’t the usb-b cable from main PC to monitor supposed to deal with the M&K data?
I also want to add that I was watching a video and the person was using a different monitor but it also had a KVM switch. However, he only had one cable connected from his laptop to the monitor. He didn’t say what cable but maybe I need a special cable for this all to work?
Shouldn’t be a problem. Switching a KVM is like unplugging the devices from one computer and plugging into another, all the features will work. And the latency added, if any, will be unnoticable.
OK, thanks for the help. I’ll try that
