Hey there i have recently bought a second monitor so i could use it. i quickly found out that i only had 1 HDMI port on my pc i did the very first thing what came to my mind and buy a HDMI splitter. After my Splitter arrived i quickly plugged in into my pc and into my two monitors. I went to my setting and was surprised when it couldn't find a second screen.

 

i quickly went online if i could find any information about this and why it didn't work. i found a earlier post which i didn't understand completely because i don't exactly know much of pc's. The only thing i think i got from the post is that this computer is unable to use 2 HDMI ports for dual screen.

 

is there any way i would be able to set it up in a way i am enable to do so.

Thanks in advance, Glenn
