    do you mean dual monitors?
    you have to have the capacity in your graphics/video card - but its highly likely you will have or just use two cards. install both monitors and sometimes when you reboot it will just work however you may need to go to display properties, monitor and on the second monitor there should be a box to tick to extrend the display. tryhttp://freepctech.com/pc/001/guide_dual_monitors.shtml

    Hi

    Yes its really dependant on what type of graphics set-up you have? do you know the name of your graphics cards? most Nvidia & Ati cards have support for duel monitor set-ups providing you have the latest drivers Nvidia 77.72 & Ati are on Catalyst 5.6.

    Please reply back with the name of your graphics card as this will help to determine what type of duel monitor set-up you can have....if any!

    Thanks

    yeah you should be able to do that. Just plug both your monitors into your graphics card and get a program called UltraMon

    It will pick it up on it's own. You then use Ultramon to set up the resolutions etc
