    Hello Glen,

    Thank you for reaching out on our HelpCenter.

    Before we can point you in the right direction, we need some additional information about your setup. Please advise:
    1) What type of video connectors do both of your laptops have?
    2) What type of USB connectors do both of your laptops have?
    3) How many USB connectors does each of your laptops have?

    Important note: To continue this discussion - please respond via KVMGalore HelpCenter thread, NOT via e-mail.

    Hi KVMGalore Expert,

    In response to your reply:

    (1) Both Laptops have HTMI & USB-C connectors.
    (2-3) Laptop (a) has 1 USB-C, 2 HTMI, 2 USB connectors. Laptop (b) has 1 USB-C, 1 HTMI, 2 USB connectors

    Please note that since the trend is moving to using more USB-C connections in the future I will like a solution if affordable to use a USB-C solution but still open to others.

    Thanks, Glen
