Hi guys,

I was just interested to know if there is such a program that will allow me to have complete and full control over one pc using another. The reason I ask is that I have two pc’s my main one that is in my sig and an old Compaq pc that I would like to have running as a team speak server. However I only have 1 monitor and it gets annoying having to keep unplugging it every time I want to do something on the Compaq.

Thanks
Ant

Another option is <a href="http://tightvnc.com/">TightVNC</a>, it supports Windows, Mac, and Linux, and in addition to a stand-alone application, it has a Java applet that you can access using a web browser to control your PC.

You could get a KVM switch something like this one (http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc.asp?description=17-107-407&depa=0&section=1) from IOGear that will allow you to use the same keyboard video and mouse for both computers. All you have to do is press a button or hit a hot key to switch over.
