Hey, I can't find a second HDMI port on my computer the closest thing I can find is a similar port called "IWCH" and when I plug the cable I own with IWCH on it, it doesnt connect my second monitor any fixes or work arounds?

@IccyTrevita --
IWCH
While standing on your head, look at a printout of these characters in a mirror, to see:
IMCH -- reverse the order, and "cheat" a bit, to see: HDMI

@IccyTrevita -- is this your computer: HP Pavilion Gaming Desktop TG01-2260xt PC (1K4J3AV_1)
The "specifications" on this page indicate one VGA port and one HDMI port, but the web-page do not state if you can use both video-outputs at the same time.
With two monitors connected, and powered-on:
- hold-down the "Windows" key (bottom-left of your keyboard)
- tap the "P" key
- release both keys
- does the dialogue window show "extend" or "duplicate" the Windows desktop & wallpaper onto both screens?

No.
Reverse the order of those 4 letters, to get: H C W I.
Invert the characters, to get: H C M I
Substitute, to get: H D M I
Not a "display-port".
