September 11, 201510 yr When i receive my new system i plan to network the main aircraft software with various utilities. Is it possible to network using one computer and two monitors or do i have to use two computer systems and two monitors? Clive Alexander
September 11, 201510 yr I use 2 computers with a 40" TV as my main monitor and a 22" LCD screen for the secondary PC. You could very well just use remote desktop and do away with the monitor on the second PC, but that would involve switching away from full screen on the main PC which I don't like doing. Unfortunately you cant create a network with only one computer, by its nature, a network needs two or more computers (or devices) You could, however, use a dual-screen setup with FSX / P3D on one, and your utilities on another. They would however be running on the same computer. Wes Meyer

If I was to use a dual screen setup how would I configure one keyboard to work between FSX and the utilities programs? In my opinion I do not know if this would be possible and even if it was it may be very confusing and present problems whilst in flight. Maybe it is best to use two computers, two monitors and two keyboards

The same keyboard would work depending on which application has "focus" at the time, the same way you would use dual screens at work for example (myself and many other people use this setup) Wes Meyer
