Connecting multiple external displays

Your desktop PC may come with VGA, HDMI, or DVI ports and allows you to connect multiple

external displays.

Setting up multiple displays

When using multiple monitors, you are allowed to set display modes. You can use the

additional monitor as a duplicate of your main display, or as an extension to enlarge your

Windows desktop.

To set up multiple displays:

Turn off your computer.

.

Connect the two monitors to your computer and connect the power cords to the

monitors. Refer to Setting up your computer section in Chapter 1 for details on how

to connect a monitor to your computer.

When a graphics card is installed in your computer, connect the monitors on the output

ports of the graphics card.

For some graphic cards, only the monitor that is set to be the primary display has display

during POST. The dual display function works only under Windows.
