No. This will show the same thing on both screens. You need a video card with dual outputs to do what you want.

You can connect two displays with what comes in the box. You will need to buy mini active display port to whatever (hdmi, dvi etc) for each additional display. Active is important and, from what I remember, there are some adapters that say they are active and won't work.It was a while ago, but I used 8 Accell B087B from Amazon and that works fine.

the device has two display ports , one hdmi, one dvi and one vga port, if your monitors has support display port display is ultimate otherwise you will have 2 different quality display, my monitor support display ports so no problem for me

not sure about two external monitors, but you can run dual monitors when you count your laptop display as one of the two monitors.

Presuming you have a VGA port on both the computer and the monitor. Considering it is the most common type of connection for computers and monitors, it's safe to assume you can.

The monitor has three different input ports (HDMI, DVI, VGA). You can use any of them. I have one laptop with HDMI, and another with just a VGA ports. I have used both of them without any issue.

Yes, I use the HDMI port to add a 2nd monitor so I can use the dual monitor feature of Windows.

Yes I have done just that...but you will eventually fine the set up unsatisfactory. better to buy a laptop docking station that has several ways to hook monitors up. my best results with this is to have 2 monitors one driven by the laptop one driven by the USB adapter ...not you main as it doer not refresh as fast as you will need.hope this helps

Yes, easily. You need no special cables or software, just a video card with 2 outputs. If a video card has 2 outputs, the normal drivers will support 2 monitors.

Nope. One should do you just fine. Your computer should us the existing display driver for the first one then this will drive the second monitor.

Since the specs say it has 2 "DisplayPort" connections - yes. http://www8.hp.com/h20195/v2/GetDocument.aspx?docname=c04128234

Hello, I do not think that you would be able to connect an additional monitor unless there is a way to do that by USB

I have an HP laptop and this device gave me three monitor capabilities. I can use the laptop's screen as well as a monitor connected to the laptop's VGA port and another monitor connected to this USB device's VGA port. So counting the laptop's monitor, I have three screens available when using this device. All I had to do was load the software that came with this device and then connect it to a USB. While setting up the dual monitors, which is all that I had expected to be able to use, I found out I could also use my laptop's screen. I have a docking station for my HP at home and the software only sees two external monitors. I don't use a docking station in the office and I can use all three screens.

I do not believe so. at least not without an adapter. i used it to plug into a display port so my system would detect multiple monitors.

There are 2 DisplayPort plugs, 1 HDMI, 1 VGA and 1 DVI. I've had no problems running a dual-monitor setup, but I doubt that whatever humble business laptop you're docking this into has the GPU capability to simultaneously display on 4 monitors. A better question you should be asking yourself is why on earth would you want a quad-monitor setup for docking your laptop. Swordfish was just a movie dude.

You can hook up any two monitors that have a connection for display port and dvi regardless of resolution. You can even use an adapter to dvi, hdmi, or display port to suit whatever you monitor has inputs for including going back to VGA

I do not have a second monitor attached to this computer but I believe it can. Go to the HP website to confirm. I do like this computer. Good Luck :)
