Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

There is only one HDMI port and one VGA port in the back of the computer.  I would like to have dual monitors as extended display.  Is the only option is to buy a VGA to HDMI cable connection?  Does this work?   does USB3.0 or USB-C port support second display?

What is your REAL TP01 machine ? VGA to HDMI cable won't work. You need a right adapter which converts from VGA (analog) to HDMI (digital). Using USB you also need a good DisplayLink certified adapter.

 

Why not just use existing HDMI and VGA ports from machine by using HDMI and VGA (native) connections.
