Easiest way to set up dual monitors

System:  HP Pavilion Media Center m8400f

 

What's the easiest way to set up dual monitors?  The outputs on the card are DVI, HDMI and Svideo.  One monitor is a DVI and the other is a VGA.

Here is a document, http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c00844654&cc=us&lc=en&dlc=en&product=3686665&tmp...

 

You would probably need two adaptors, DVI to VGA and HDMI to DVI.

Re: Easiest way to set up dual monitors

Thank you.  That makes sense.  I was trying to figure how to convert the HDMI to VGA.
