1337.g4M3R Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 Just a quickie, I have a dual input Iiyama E481S monitor, it has inputs for DVI and VGA. Currently i have it hooked up to my pc on DVI, could i also hook up a mac to it on the VGA socket and switch between the two? I havent got my mac yet but want to know just so i wont have to buy costly kvm switches for the monitor, just a usb one. there is a switch on the front of the monitor that says "input". when i press it, it goes blank, presumably on the VGA channel, and then i press it again and the picture comes back. Thanks for all your help Link to comment https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/304404-dual-input-monitor/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

BTallack Posted April 3, 2005 Share Posted April 3, 2005 I'm able to do it on my Gateway 17" LCDTV, so it should work fine for you. With mine there's a few more inputs to cycle through, but I can switch between analog (PC) and Digital (Mac Mini).
