OK, next puzzler.
Dell Vostro 220 (6 months old) with a ATI Radeon HD 3650 video card. Computer is running Vista.
No matter what I try, or how I try it, I cannot figure out how to run multiple displays on this video card. The video card has one DVI port, one DP port, and one HDMI port.
This computer is used to drive two Epson video projectors, plus the monitor.
Do I really need a video card with two VGA outputs, so I can attach the monitor to the one output... and the video projectors to the other output (via a hub)?
How it is set up now, is that the DVI port is running through a DVI -> VGA adapter, and then to a 4 port VGA hub that feeds the monitor, plus the 2 projectors.
Or is another option to get a new monitor that I could connect to the HDMI port on the video card, and then free up the DVI port so it would be exclusively for the projectors?
I've never had such a difficult time getting dual display to work before.... but I've never been around a set up like this one before either.
