Using KVM mode, not seamless. Since upgrading all machines involved to 3.55 Build 00101, the program has lost the capability to deliver a Ctrl+Alt+Del or anything else to all secondary computers. The primary can connect to the secondaries and, if there is an image on the secondary's screen, show it. However, that's all it can do. If the secondary machine is locked, the program cannot deliver a Ctrl+Alt+Del. If the secondary machine is unlocked, it cannot

If either machine has two active graphics systems, particularly the secondary machine, disable/uninstall one and see what happens. One of my secondary machines is an HP Zbook that has two graphics systems (the Intel one that comes with the i7) and a discrete Nvidia. Until I disabled/uninstalled the Intel graphics, I had exactly the situation you have. Once I did so, MP worked just fine.

In any case, the question about two graphics adapters concerned the secondary machine, whatever it is. That said, might the secondary machine be turning off its graphics adapter when there is no monitor attached? It seems pretty clear that MP connects through the secondary machine's

[quote who="ejv" reply="25" id="3787244"] I have a similar problem. Windows 10 2004 build 19041 on both machines, Primary Laptop connects to Secondary Desktop. IF the secondary has a monitor attached, it works fine. If there is no monitor on the secondary then it connects and I have a black screen on the secondary.

[quote who="sdRohan" reply="23" id="3787074"] Our primary concern is the crashing, however; it is what we will address first. I am working with the devs to work on something for those that are having it to try. [/quote] I certainly understand that crashing has to be the priority but I don't have crashes, just a blank screen. By way of reminder, I have an HP Zbook G3 laptop. The machine has Intel 530 graphics built-in as well as a discrete Nvidia Quadro M1

That did the trick. I disabled the Intel video "card" in the BIOS and Multiplicity works properly now. That said, I wish I did not have to do that because the machine had surprisingly good battery life with both of them installed. Is there any way to get Multiplicity to work with both video adapters enabled?

Yes, it has two onboard/built-in video cards, an Intel HD Graphics 530 and an Nvidia Quadro M1000M. No external monitors now or ever. I've read the machine has two video "cards" because it used one (the Intel?) when there's a light graphics load and switches to the other (the Nvidia) for more demanding graphics loads. Apparently, this is a power-saving feature. It does not matter, however, what the screen is doing. Thank you!

I forgot to mention that, even though I have a blank screen on the primary computer, not only does it respond to a Ctrl+Alt+Del, it responds to any other keystrokes such as entering a password following the three-key salute.

I had a somewhat different blank screen when connecting to secondary machines problem. In my case, I do NOT get a blank screen if the computer's own monitor is displaying an image . If the machine's monitor has gone dark, so is the MP window on my primary computer. I have found that pressing Ctrl+Alt (no other key) "wakes up" the secondary machine to the same screen I'd
