External monitors

Bhavin Parekh

Hi There

I have got ASUS laptop with two port, one is DVI-D and another is VGA.

I have also got two external LCD, BenQ 24" and Dell 17" LCD.

I tried to switch off laptop lcd (using Fn F8) and to connect both lcd as
external monitor (one using DVI and another into VGA port) but it doesnt
work.

Can any one suggest if i am doing anything wrong? Or the way i am doing its
not possible at all.
I had already exteneded desktop view in display properties for both
monitors..

Any ideas?
Thanx

Doubtful you can use both ports at the same time for dual-external monitors.

You will need to know the exact "video card" make inside the laptop
and then look at the specification for the external monitor ports.
Most laptops would use a "low end" video card and will remove more
advanced features such as using two external monitor at the same time.
