How do I connect T,V or add second monitor to my computer?

‎02-24-2012 05:36 PM

Computer Specifications: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01374065&tmp_task=prodinfoCategory&lc=en&dlc=en...

 

I don't have a HMDI port on my computer, and I only have one VGA, and NO DVI port on my modem. How else can I add a second monitor or TV to my computer ?

 

Thank you in advance

Hi,

 

This is at the back

 

 

For a second monitor, you need a new video card which supports dual monitors you also need power supply for it. My suggestion: save money to buy a new machine.

Hi,

 

Thanks for the response. Is it possible to use a splitter cable like this : http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3521446

Hi,

 

I don't think the existing video card on the machine can drive 2 monitors.
