Connecting Two Monitors (Without an Adapter)
NOTE:
Dependent upon options selected when you purchased your computer, your video card may have
either two DVI ports or one DVI port and one VGA port.
Follow these instructions if you are connecting two monitors with DVI connectors to the two
optional DVI ports on your computer, or if you are connecting one monitor with a DVI
connector and one VGA monitor to the DVI and optional VGA ports on your computer.
If you have a monitor with a VGA connector, but your computer has two DVI ports, follow the
instructions in "Connecting Two Monitors (With the Use of an Adapter)" on page 20.
