I have a MAC Mini attached to a KVM switch, this setup had been working great for several years with the KVM and a 24" Dell monitor. All I changed was the monitor, I changed to 27" Dell monitor, same resolution. Now when the MAC is turned on, all I see is the wallpaper and whenever I press a key on the keyboard, I hear a sound. Same sound no matter what keys are pressed.

I posted too quickly. I figured it out. I checked the back of my MAC mini and noticed a HDMI cable running to one of my other monitors. I installed that connection in case I ever wanted to simply change the input on that monitor and run two on the Mini. It was defaulting to that monitor.... All is well now...

Glad to hear you got it working!

Is it a solid KVM switch? Would you recommend it?
