Dual Monitors for HP 700-210xt

[DonnieY]

We would like to add a second monitor to our 700-210xt tower PC.  We currently have a single HP ENVY27 monitor.  Can we add a second 27" monitor?  Do we need any special cables or cards?  Thanks!

Thank you for posting your query, I'll be more than glad to help you out 🙂

I see that want to set up a dual monitor on HP ENVY 700-210xt Desktop PC,  

You can add another video card to your computer to get another video connection. Make sure both video cards use the same Windows 10.

Let's try these steps:

. 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.
