Ok.
I still recommend a low profile video card with dual or triple video outputs.

Are you using the following method?
Hold down the Windows key and tap the P key. Use the mouse to put the cursor an Extend and give it a left-click.

How are the displays connected to the workstation?
Which graphics card and which port types?

Aha!
All a splitter will do is duplicate what is coming from the port.
That is why all you get is a duplicated image of what the notebook's display is showing.

You will need a video card if you want to run two displays.
One of these compatible cards will suffice.
- NVIDIA Quadro NVS 295 256MB PCIe Graphics Card
- NVIDIA Quadro FX 380 LP 512MB PCIe Graphics Card
