I have a question that you may be able to answer. (Or anyone else, for that matter). The new computer arrived and is set up. There is just one little mystery. I swapped it in for the PC that was there, which is several years old. I connected it to the current main PC through a KVM switch. The weird thing is it recognizes the mouse and keyboard, which come out of the KVM on a single USB connection. They work fine. But the main monitor is not recognized by the new PC. The second monitor has a DVI connection and it recognizes that on a straight connection, no problem, so that is how it is set up now. I would prefer connecting both monitors to the new PC. Do you think the problem is more likely to be the KVM or something about Windows 8? Or something else?

I guess I could run the main monitor straight in and see if that works, and will do that. Just wondered if something would jump out at you. Oh, the KVM is made by Trendnet.

Thanks in advance for any guidance. If I get to try a direct connection this weekend (one of my daughters is visiting) I will post an update to this message.
