I want to hook up 2 computers, with 1 keyboard, 1 mouse.
Each of the comps have 2 dvi cards each.

I also have 2 monitors.

Any ideas?

Hey, kktk :welcome: to the forums!

The iogear dualview kvm (http://www.mwave.com/mwave/viewspec.hmx?scriteria=3714881) should do the trick...

if you want to use both of the computers at the same time, displaying one on each lcd and still using one mouse and keyboard, you can use a program called synergy.

bingo
+1 for synergy
its a free open source app, and it simply works...on any OS across any platform. all you need is a network connection to the 2 machines

Synergy (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/)
