Adding a 3rd monitor

[Barco56]

Trying to add a 3rd monitor to my HP Slim Desktop 290

@Barco56 Here's a step by step instruction on how to connect more than one monitor to the desktop (Also, please ensure the device can support 3 monitors, as most slim desktops can only support 2, for more details on your desktop, please provide the complete model name, ensure you don't share serial number on a public platform)

Step 1: Connect the second display

Computers and TVs have a wide variety of video connection types. The video connection on your computer must match the connection on your TV or monitor.

NOTE: 

If your PC only has DVI and your TV does not have a DVI port, you can use a special adapter or converter cable.

1. Select a connection type based on your second monitor.

   • Monitor: VGA  or DVI  cable

   • TV: Video (composite)  or S-video  cable

   • High Definition TV: DVI  or HDMI  cable

2. Connect the TV or monitor to the computer using the cable you chose.

3. Connect a power cable to the TV or monitor, and then turn it on.

4. TV connections only: Change the TV video input source to match the video source connection from the computer (Line-1, Video-1, HDMI, etc.). Refer to documents that came with the TV for instructions.

   Depending on the TV, the image quality might not be as good as that of a monitor.

5. Turn on the computer.
