check if your graphics card has two dvi ports. if it has 1 dvi and 1 vga--blue port-- then try and find a vga-to-dvi connector somewhere like www.newegg.com or any computer store

Ok so you want to hook up 2 monitors into one computer this is what you will need to do this.
1.) Hammer
2.) screwdriver
3.) an monitor adapter
4.) System Mechanic Professional 6 with drivescrubber2
Ok the first thing you are going to need to do is go to this
website http://www.iolo.com/sm/6pro/index.cfm and download the professional edition. Once done you need to install it and run the drivescrubber2. Once done take your monitor adaptor and your hammer and pound that thing in there with force. If you dont you can lose everything you need. While your pc is restarting connect both monitors and turn them on. Now your pc should be restarted after that is done you are finished enjoy your new monitors.

Unless your computer has a place to plug in a second monitor already you will need a second graphics card. Windows then allows you to extend your desktop to cover both monitors. You can find information on how to set up for multiple monitors at the following link to microsoft

you would need a graphics card with dual connectors, so u might need to replace your graphics card, since if u connect to monitors to 1 graphics card slot u would get the same picture on both.
u can get a splitter connection to share both monitor on 1 pc via 1 connection on the graphics card that u can get from most computer shops.

hello
here are several different ways you can make use of this extra screen space when working at home or in your office. If you take a lot of digital pictures, some of the advantages to having dual monitors at your work space include:
•
When browsing your picture library, you can view the thumbnails on one monitor, and use the second monitor to view pictures full screen to check for proper focus and image quality.
