I have to computers and use manual switch to connect them to the same monitor, keyboard and mouse. When the switch is on computer A and I want to restart computer B remotely, it cannot boot because it doesn't recognize keyboard. Will this issue be solved if I buy automatic switch???
 
You can buy a KVM switch. I use a Linksys KVM2-KIT which costs about $30-35. Switching between computers is accomplished by pressing scroll-lock twice.
