Will my A4313W support dual displays? If not, what do I need to upgrade and what should I upgrade to? 

2.2 GHz AMD Sempron

3 GB RAM

64-bit Windows 7

It looks like you only have a single VGA port on the computer (unless you've got an add-on video card).

You'd need to install a graphics card that supports more than one display. You've got a PCI Express x16 slot you can plug the card into but you might need to upgrade the power supply since it's only 250 watts. You'll need to upgrade that if the card you buy requires more power.

Here are the complete specs for your HP Pavilion a4313w Desktop Computer. As has already been stated, your factory installed power supply is only 250 watts, and can't support the requirements of most retail graphics cards. If you wish to install a discrete graphics card in the computer's PCIe x16 slot, you will need to upgrade your power power supply to the minimum required by the graphics card. Please see Big_Dave's Guide for Selecting a Discrete Video Card for more information.

If you don't do any gaming and want more screen space for day trading, spreadsheets, word documents, etc., please consider a USB-to-video adapter such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV19 or EVGA UV Plus+ UV39.

Thanks to you both for your answers! I should have specified that I was just looking for more screen real estate, rather than gaming or graphic intensive applications. The USB to Video output solution is simple, economical and fast. Thanks very much for the help!
