how to install StarTech.com 2-port KVM Switch with Dual VGA and 2-port USB Hub - USB 2.0

  • Place the KVM switch on your desk between the two computers and your console (monitor, keyboard, and mouse). Ensure there is adequate space for cable management and airflow.
  • Connect each computer’s VGA video output to the corresponding VGA input on the KVM switch using high-quality VGA cables. If you are using dual monitors, connect the second monitor to the second VGA input as required by your workflow.
  • Connect the monitor to the KVM switch’s VGA output, so your single console display shows the active computer’s video signal.
  • Attach your keyboard and mouse to the console ports on the KVM switch. Then connect USB peripherals you wish to share (printer, USB drive, etc.) to the built-in USB 2.0 hub ports on the switch.
  • Power on both computers and use the front-panel button or keyboard hotkeys to switch between machines. The KVM will route video, keyboard, mouse, and USB peripherals to the selected computer without rebooting.
  • Optionally configure any preference settings in your BIOS or operating system if you want to optimize USB device recognition or video behavior, though most users will experience plug-and-play readiness out of the box.

Strong with high rim, makes for a great disposable plate
Size: 10inch-140
I really like these paper plates because the rim is so high. It’s definitely higher than many other plates that I’ve encountered. This helps food stay on the plate, no matter who is using it. The plates are super sturdy too. I can put heavy, wet foods on it (like a can of dog food) and hold it with one hand without it buckling or collapsing. The paper is thick, which helps add to the sturdy feel. The design is super basic. They are white with a simple design adorning the rim. They look like regular paper plates you might find at the grocery store.. except these are stronger. I think they’re a great value. I love using paper plates, since I don’t have a dishwasher. I often use them for my dogs wet food. The rim is high enough to keep all of the food on the plate, despite him moving it around a bit. The plate size is great too. They’re large enough to use as a dinner plate in my household. I’m happier with thee plates than I expected to be. I’ll take a super functional plate with a plain design over a “pretty” plate that flops in half when you carry food on it. Function over aesthetics for the win.

Great quality product!!
Size: 10inch-140
These disposable paper plates are an absolute lifesaver for family barbecues and large dinner parties. The ten-inch size is incredibly spacious, easily holding a full meal with multiple side dishes without anything spilling over the edges. I am seriously impressed by the heavy-duty construction because they stay completely sturdy even when loaded up with heavy, saucy foods. It gives me so much peace of mind knowing they are truly soak-proof and won't get soggy or bend. With a massive one hundred and forty plates in the pack, it is an amazing bulk value that lasts through several events. Cleanup is an absolute breeze since we can just toss them out, saving me from hours of standing at the kitchen sink. They are perfect for birthdays, picnics, or even just lazy weeknight dinners when I want to skip doing the dishes. Anyone searching for durable, reliable disposable tableware for their next gathering will absolutely love this set.

Sturdy and good quality paper plates
Size: 10inch-140, Size: 10inch-140
These 140 pack paper plates are exactly what I needed for my family party. The plates are Saturday, heavy duty and easy to handle lager portion of food without bending and leaking. I used them during a family gathering and the plates help up the salad and burger throughout serving lunch. The 10 inch size of the plates are just perfect for any occasion to serve enough food on them. Also with 140 plates I have enough to go around for several parties and I feel I still have more than enough. I like to used paper plates as the clean up afterwards is much easier also it will much more cost effective in long term.

Strong and durable.
Size: 10inch-140, Size: 10inch-140
I’m very impressed by these plates. I want to start by saying I use them mostly for my home cooking but these are strong and durable enough to be used at outdoor events and other social gathering. At 10in the plates are big enough to fit the whole meal, and with growing boys it is necessary to feed them full portions for their growing bodies. The design is nice and the plates are thick, there is also a coating on them. I prefer that because I often cook with gravies and sauces and if you want the sauces and juice to remain you need a coated disposable plate. Another positive is that because you can put bigger food portions because of the size, you also need the plates to hold up. These do exactly that. Even with heavy foods the plates remain firm and not flimsy. These are really good paper plates.

Nice sturdy plate. Great for different occasions
Size: 10inch-140, Size: 10inch-140
The plates are big and sturdy. They could hold 2 slices of pizza easily. These are great for everyday use. The plates are easy to remove from stack. They don’t stick together. The design is the same as shown. The blue and white colors complement each other.
