Yup it's possible, you need a secondary video port or a signal splitter but that wont enable you to extend your desktop or show multiple ones just show your output on 2 screens, get a Video Adapter with 2 out ports. After you solve the hardware end on this you'll need to go into the desktop properties and play around with the settings to enable the dual output, but that's a headache for another day. :)

Configuring your displays
Connect your second monitor, and then restart your computer so that it detects the new monitor. Once you have restarted your computer, you'll need to adjust your display settings by following these steps:

1.Click the Start menu, and then click Control Panel.

2.Click Appearance and Themes, and then click Display.
Control Panel: Display

Once you connect your second monitor, you need to adjust your display settings.

3.In the Display Properties dialog box, click the Settings tab.

4.Click the monitor icon labeled 2, and then select the Extend my Windows desktop onto this monitor check box.
Display Properties dialog box

Extend your Windows desktop to your second monitor.

Troubleshooting: If you do not see two monitor icons, your computer might not support multiple displays. First, make sure that you have Windows XP installed. Then, visit Windows Update by clicking your Start menu, selecting All Programs, and then clicking Windows Update. Then click Custom Install, and install any available hardware updates. You may also need to visit your computer manufacturer's Web site to install an updated display driver. If you still do not see two monitor icons, you may need to install an additional display adapter, as described earlier in this article.

5.If necessary, drag the monitor icons so that they are arranged in the same way as the monitors on your desk. Click the Identify button to indicate which monitor is 1 and which monitor is 2.
Dragging monitor icons

Drag the monitor icons to match the physical arrangement of your monitors.

6.Click Apply. Windows XP will activate your new monitor.

7.Click OK.
Dual monitor setup

A dual monitor setup enables you to view the same image side by side.

Once your monitor is set up, you can use your mouse to grab the title bar of a window and drag it to your new display. If a window does not move when you drag it, double-click the title bar first, and then drag it. Having two monitors will forever change the way you work with your computer. Be creative and experiment with the sizing of application windows and what information you can keep in constant view while doing multiple tasks.

You need a "Dual Monitor Video Card." Just go to a browser and type that in. It's best if your video card is compatible with the rest of your system, like a creative card video card will be more compatible with a creative audio card. I also like the nVDIA GEForce. You need to research the various model, and choose by price or by options.

The decrease the ms, the fewer ghosting on an identical time as gaming. Ghosting potential blurring which happens for the time of quickly action scenes in video games. rather you rather won't see a distinction between 5ms and 2ms. My first liquid crystal reveal video reveal had a 8ms reaction time and that i on no account observed ghosting in it. So 5ms will do you in basic terms nice in case you elect to maintain that $40 seven.

If your asking if it is possible, yes it is. You can have a laptop on and hook the laptop up to a desktop screen and show everything from your laptop on both screens.
