The computer does have both VGA and HDMI ports but not sure whether both monitirs can be used simultaneously.

you don't need this to do that, all you need is to plug in an external monitor into the VGA port and if it has sufficient memory it can access both monitors without this cable

Yes, as long as you have the dvi out on your computer and the display port out on your computer, then you will be able to do the dual monitors this way. I currently have a dell with a vga out and a hdmi out. I have one monitor go to the vga and the other to the hdmi. This is nice that it works this way because most newer computers now come built with multiple video outs. Which means you don't have to spend the extra dollars getting a high performance video card with dual adapters.

The computer has two video output ports. One HDMI, the other VGA. Both ports can be used at the same time if desired.

Yes. You can run up to 3 (verified) monitors at a time the HDMI and two dvi.

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.

This desktop has a vga and a hdmi port. Since both are on an integrated video card I believed it will not run dual monitors its and either or situation

The answer is yes you can use multiple monitors with this video card. on the video card there's an VGA, HDMI , and a DVI connector. even if you use up 1 of those 3 ports on the back of the card there are adapters that you can get for your monitor cable to the back of the other port on the video card. Also 1 of the best multi monitor programs out there is called: display fusion pro. Windows 7 does support dual monitors but display fusion pro ados a whole lot more features to it. Hope this helps. www.DHCS.org

No don't work with 2 monitors simultaneously, only with one on HDMI or DVI.

You can use the DVI and HDMI to run two monitors. You can also use the DVI connector and the onboard VGA connector. That is the way I use it (my monitors don't have an HDMI connection). To use the DVI+VGA you have to go into the BIOS setup and enable the onboard VGA.

It has 4 ports (2 DVI, 1 HDMI, 1 Display Port) so technically you can but I've personally been taught that for more than two monitors you should run two cards.

Yes, you need one of them HDMI, one display port, and one DVI or VGA using the VGA/DVI connector it includes.

What do you mean by 'a splitter'? If you mean having 2 connections off the DVI connection, then no. If you just mean use a DVI&gt;VGA adapter, so 1 monitor plugged into VGA port and another plugged into the adapter on the DVI, then yes. If you have 2 DVI only monitors, you should be able to use the DVI port for one and use a DVI&gt;HDMI cable to use the HDMI port for the other.

can i buy hdmi converter to hook up the monitor to desktop to another monitor for 2nd device?

I have it setup so that either of my laptops can use one central monitor. First you need to figure out what you want your central monitor to be, plug that central source into the VGA out, then the two devices you want to use this display would be plugged into the two in ports.

The back of the tower has one hdmi port, and one vga port. I hooked up dual monitors (both the same) using an hdmi to vga adapter. I suppose you can hook up anything as long as you can find an adapter to make the second port work.

You have the built-in monitor, and a vga port as well as an hdmi port. The settings detect for multiple monitors. I would expect that, therefore, you could do as you asked. However, I have not tried this so will not certify. The vga port can be used as a second monitor, while the hdmi can be plugged into HD tv etc. Vga does not carry sound, hdmi does. If you need more of an answer, you can advise exactly what you are trying to accomplish. Remember there are also other ports and wireless available as well. I would think you could do whatever you need to do since this is well-equipped laptop.
