Dual Monitor Cables Plug the power cords into your power strip. Connect the first monitor to your computer through the HDMI port or through a VGA port, if desired. Do the same for the second monitor. If your computer only has one HDMI port and one VGA port, which is common, find an adapter to complete the connection.
Can you use both VGA and HDMI at the same time?
It is physically possible to attach a VGA and HDMI connector at the same time. Most likely yes.
Can I use VGA and Display Port at the same time?
Yes you could run two screens if you have one monitor plugged into displayport and one into VGA. However, there is a possibility that the motherboard would not be able to handle it, but nearly all modern ones should.
How do I connect two VGA monitors to a laptop with one HDMI port?
The only thing you need to do is connect your first monitor directly to the HDMI port. Then, use another cable that supports both your second monitor and PC. For example, if your display and PC both support VGA ports, insert one end of the VGA cable to your monitor’s port. Then, connect another end to your PC’s port.
