How to connect 2 monitors?
I have a probook 6550 b and 90w docking station.
I'm about to buy two 2 monitors HP 2310i but I don't know how to connect them via the docking station.
Is it still possible?
I would apreciate any help on this. And if you can do it in Finnish, better yet :-)
Hello
If the docking station as two video output ports, you can connect 2 monitors to that. Once the monitor is connected, then press Windows + P, it will give options to duplicate or extend the display.

How to connect 2 monitors to macbook pro late 2012
Hello, I want to connect 2 monitors to my end 2012 pro macbook and use monitors instead of the laptop.
It's quite possible,
To do this, you need the following:
-2 external monitors
-a thunderbolt adapter that can:
-convert thunderbolt to any video input located on your external monitor of choice.
-a way of Garland or split your thunderbolt 1 port to connect to 2 monitors

You can then use the closing clamshell mode to operate only on your external monitors

Dell XPS 8500 with 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570 - how to connect two monitors or?
Hi, I got my Dell XPS 8500 today with the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7570.
Before buying the office, I read online that the AMD Radeon HD 7570 supports Eyefinity. Eyefinity is supposed to be capable of supporting 4 monitors using the HD 7570 map by the description here: http://www.amd.com/us/products/desktop/graphics/7000/7570/Pages/radeon-7570.aspx#2
When you look at the photos of the Dell XPS 8500 online I thought that Eyefinity support was to use a display in addition to the DVI port Port. Specifically, I thought that a monitor has been supported by DVI monitors while 4 thru two supported using an active connection to the view port using a product like the DisplayPort Accell UltraAV K087B-005 / 3 x multi-monitor DVI - D single-link adapter.
To my surprise the graphics card came with an HDMI port, not a display port and I believe that HDMI port is a connection from one to the other, and not one of many display connection. Maybe someone can correct me if I am wrong on this point. But if I'm not wrong then, this would imply that, at most, the Dell XPS 8500 with the AMD Radeon HD card 7570 can support up to only 2 monitors (one DVI port) and the other HDMI port instead of 4 monitors as described on the above link.
Others would agree with this statement?
Note that the Dell XPS 8500 also has a VGA connector on it but I tested it using a monitor on VGA and a monitor on the DVI connection and the computer that reported as an invalid monitor config. Probably because the VGA and DVI connections are originally the same video display as connect two monitors to display even has no logical sense.
I have not tested the HDMI port for the second monitor again mainly because I don't have a spare HDMI cable on site at the present time. I'll probably buy one tomorrow unless I see the comments of my post, specifying that a second monitor can be moved through the HDMI port on the AMD Radeon HD 7570 map... I'd be surprised if that were the case (1 monitor system would be quite restrictive), but it is difficult to say with certainty, because the VGA and DVI connections at the same time have been marked by the computer as an invalid configuration...
Any thoughts on the different ways to configure multiple monitors with the XPS 8500 and the 1 GB AMD Radeon HD 7500 is appreciated.
Thank you.
Doug
If the card is not a display port is not an eyefinity card and cannot stand 3 monitors... it will be 2 monitors, no problem... I couldn't find anywhere on the site of Dell, where he says that the card was eyefinity... If you want 3 assumption of monitors you can buy a video card that supports.

How to connect 2 monitors to Satellite Pro C850
I was wondering if there is another way to connect the 2 monitors (including one with VGA and HDMI) and other (VGA and DVI) for laptop for the screen area of extended work, other than the use of a Dynadock? Thank you
No, all I know is not possible.
You can use the VGA or HDMI output port video. But it is not possible to use the two video ports simultaneously.
In this case you need some kind of external solution like Dynadock U3

How to connect 3 monitors to Satellite P875-321?
Hello
Next to the built-in computer screen my P875-321 has a HDMI output and RGB. I want to use both the HDMI and the output extended RGB displays (no mirror but different content), and the screen of the computer as dsiplay primary. How to create such a configuration?
Thank you

Hello
From my point of view of the few is not possible to use the HDMI and VGA port simultaneously.
HDMI is a digital output, VGA supports analog signal.If you want to use three different views (1 internal + 2 external monitors), I recommend you to use some of the external devices; for example Dynadock

How to connect 2 screens on a HPE-210y PC?
How to connect 2 monitors to a HPE-210y PC? I have 2 monitors HP2010i . Behind the PC, there is a VGA - DVI input and an HDMI input. I have connected a monitor to the PC with a VGA - DVI adapter. I saw a VGA input which was covered with a plastic plate "DO NOT REMOVE" black screwed attached. I removed the plate and the second monitor connected.
The second monitor keeps saying "No Signal" and goes to sleep. I tried the monitor plugs around switching, but I keep getting the same results. Only the monitor connected to the VGA - DVI input works.
How can I connect two monitors to this PC?
Thank you
You must also use the HDMI port. To do this, you need an adapter DVI HDMI and a DVI cable.
The other VGA port has been covered for a reason, to keep you to try what you did. When a graphics card is used, the video port of the motherboard is disabled.
See you soon,.

Any tips or advice?

Docking station replica ports in order to use the Portege docking station port or port.If you want to connect more than one external monitor to the laptop then I would recommend using something like Toshiba Dynadock

I have a HP Pavilion p6-2360eo with the video card Radeon 7450 connected to a monitor of 23xi Pavilion.
Now, I want to add a monitor of 23xi more, but I do not understand how to connect the cables to the video card to get two logical screen (different views on each monitor)
Supposedly this monitor can connect to the video card, you have the HDMI connection. Assuming that the first monitor is connected via DVI, then try a HDMI cable to the second. I got this from the description of the video card on THIS page.
Support up to two displays at the same time in these configurations: DVI, HDMI and VGA + HDMI (using the included adapter cable)

How can I connect another monitor to compaq SG3 because there is only 1 VGA port and no HDMI.
How can I connect another monitor to compaq SG3 series because there is only 1 VGA port at the back and there is no HDMI port. The operating system is Windows 7. I think to buy vga splitter, I don't know if that will allow me to move images/data between the monitors. Please tell us what to do. Thank you
It is based on the expected results. A VGA splitter will give you two monitors but they will display the same image. If the expected result is two different pictures, maybe something like this will do;

How to connect an additional monitor for the gateway all-in-one?
Hello you all, I have a question I hope you a lot more smarter computer people can help me with. I have a friend who has a gateway all in one model #-ZX4931. It has a VGA port on the back. It has been also updated for Windows 10. I'm house sitting and dog looking for her in a few weeks
I want to plug the additional monitor which by the way, it's a Dell (sorry) to work on a project I'am doing right now. I try to use the screen that she has on the All In One and I didn't like how my project came out looking
I see on the back of its All In One, it has a VGA port. I Google several times and different words from Google, which told me that you cannot plug an additional external monitor for all in one PC, so I'm confused as to why there is a VGA port, if you couldn't plug the external monitor
in any case, can someone please help me and give me details on how to connect an external monitor, in addition to its gateway all in one model #-ZX4931
Looking at your specific model, I think you can try to connect an external monitor via the VGA port.
Once you have connected the secondary monitor using the VGA port, press control + p and main Windows logo if you are able to extend or clone your desktop.

You must buy a second video card or replace the one you have
with a card that takes in charge of two monitors.Ken Blake, Microsoft MVP
