How to Use a Notebook Monitor & Two Monitors Attached to a Dock

It is possible to hook up multiple monitors to your computer system.

When using a notebook computer, you have a VGA connection port available for hooking up an outside monitor. This allows you to view your work on a larger scale than what the notebook screen provides. However, if you are using a VGA splitter dock, it is possible to hook up two additional monitors to your notebook. Performing this connection allows other individuals the ability to see your computer content.

Things You'll Need

• 3 VGA cables
• VGA splitter dock

Instructions

1. Plug the first VGA cable into the VGA port on the notebook computer. Insert the other end of the cable into the single "In" port on the VGA splitter dock.

2. Attach the second VGA cable into one of the "Out" ports on the VGA dock. Insert the other end of the cable into the VGA connection on the first monitor.

3. Repeat the connection process with the third VGA cable and the second monitor.

4. Power on the notebook and the two monitors. The computer monitors automatically display the contents of the connected notebook.
