HP-V27c G5 27" VA. I have a new HP monitor. It will be the 2nd monitor to be used simultaneously with the existing identical monitor. The cord is not long enough. Can I plug it into my first existing monitor? I am using an HP PC, windows 10 OS. How do I solve my problem? Thank you.

Hi @NEIL-B,
Welcome to HP Support Community.
Thank you for posting your query, I will be glad to help you.
I understand that you have a brand-new HP V27c monitor and would like to set it up as a second display for your PC. You can try connecting the new monitor in place of the old one to test its functionality. However, to determine if your PC supports dual monitors, I’ll need to check the model details. If you’re using an HP PC, please share the model number and serial number so I can verify its compatibility and assist you further."
I hope this helps.
Take care and have a good day.
