#Monitor ghosting

For various reasons, the main one being the need for capable business software running on a computer for which spare parts are still available, I finally had to buy a 486 computer. In order to use my 17 inch monitor with both machines (my Amiga is a 3000 with the built in de-interlacer), I purchased a switch box and two db15 cables (6 feet long) to connect to both my computers. I now have a ghost image on my screen. When I connect my Amiga or 486 directly to the monitor the problem disappears. Has anyone solved this problem or does anyone know how I can solve this problem without having to plug the monitor directly into each computer every time I switch between them? Thanks for any help. – Steve –
