Can any one help, I have a work laptop - which I need to operate dual monitors within extended displays(basic I need to see different things on both external monitors), is there an adaptor - hdmi splitter - that you can recommend please?

I have purchased two now with no success, neither work.

 

When I have solved this mystery  - is it possible to work on both screen from your laptop with the laptop lid shut - if poss would someone be able to walk me through how to do this please?

HDMI splitter wont give you extended display. What is your machine ? Normally if you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only), you can use

  • Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,
  • Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

                                     USB to HDMI Adapter
