Does the Hp slim 290p-0043w support dual independent monitors and how?

Does this model support extended desktop and if so is it as simple as one vga cable to one monitor and an HDMI cable to the other?

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

To get the answer to this question, Yes! it does support dual/extended monitor setup. 

Here are few methods to setup dual monitor:

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.

Also, configure the display with Windows and configure the display with the display driver: Click here
