Windows 7 Setup dual monitor

Enforcerke · Dec 12, 2013

Hello, I read here: http://www.wikihow.com/Set-Up-Dual-Monitors
that you need 2 identical ports. But i have this on the back of my pc:

Am I able to use this for dual monitoring then? Because they are all 3 different.

If not, can I also buy something so it splits in two or something?

Thanks

BadRobot is correct. You should be able to use the VGA (blue) for one monitor and the DVI (normally white) for a second monitor. You shouldn't notice any differences between the two even though VGA is considered an analog connection and DVI is considered a digital connection.

It doesn't have to be identical. It's just a suggestion. You photo attachment is "broken" at my end. But basically, most PC can run at least 2 monitors at the same time.
