Amilo Pi2540, two external monitors and Extended desktop

Postby noi » Mon Jun 30, 2008 1:31 pm

Is it possible to connect two external monitors with Amilo Pi2540 in extended desktop mode and use all three displays simultaneously (notebook LCD+2 external)?
Thanks

Since DVI-D and VGA are two independent interfaces I think it should work if your driver supports three monitors.
I recommend you to go to a computer store or somebody else who has multiple monitors and test it.

But most likely you will notice a difference in the display between the two external monitors even if it s the same model.

I'm almost sure that doesn't work. There are only some expensive graphic cards that support more than two displays (two displays => dual head).
