I am able to use 2 monitors and the laptop screen is blank, or use 1 monitor and laptop but not 2 monitors and laptop at the same time. If I try I get the error "This GPU supports up to 2 displays".
Is there anyway I can get all 3 monitors working (preferrably without extra hardware/money involved)?

Are there any others, we have an IT department and they may have some of the stuff, but I am sure we do not have those.
