Thanks I have seen this done , you can get add-on program. you must use USB keyboard and mouse. I have only seen two screens per computer. I have no clue what the add-on software is called. |

| 748574 | 2009-02-17 06:01:00 | Could be using some software similar to This here (www.thinsoftinc.com) mainly This one (www.thinsoftinc.com). | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 748575 | 2009-02-17 06:34:00 | Cheers Wainui, wondering just how effective this sort of software would be though. Would a normal motherboard and Windows install be able to handle four or so PCI graphics cards or would that be drawing to much from the interface? In theory it would be a great way to get more computers into the school I'm doing a bit of IT work for. |

Agree with that - If you look at the system Spec's on the site they are not exactly high - I would assume these are minimum Recommended System Requirements on Host PC • Pentium® III 450MHz or faster • 192MB minimum for 2 users (64MB per additional user) • USB Ports • Available PCI or AGP slot As it says PCI slot(s) having available PCI slots would be the biggest requirements. Since PCI graphic cards may be a bit harder to come by these days that would be the only real drawback. I have a spare PCI card laying about - mind you its ATI - and the workshop PC's all run nVidia Cards - could make an interesting Experiment :thumbs: |
