How do you set up dual-monitor with 5670 using both VGA and DVI ? I only have two DELL LCD supporting VGA and DVI.

It should be auto detect on the computer, just go to the CCC to enable display to both simultaneously and you're good 2 go

Thank you. It somehow doesn't detect one of them, maybe its a problem on the 3rd party adapter.

Sorry, again my problem on 5670. Only now I have time to take a look.

I'm trying to get dual monitor running on my single 5670. But the DELLs only support DVI and VGA, and I only have VGA cables with me. DVI cables seems lost somewhere.

5670 has three different port, which are DVI, HDMI and another which I am not familiar of. The box came with a VGA-DVI adapter and a DVI-HDMI adapter. I bought another VGA-DVI adapter so that I can use both monitor. So my connections are like below:

1) VGA cable, VGA-DVI adapter, DVI port
2) VGA cable, VGA-DVI adapter, DVI-HDMI adapter, HDMI port

I found out there's a problem getting the 2) monitor to run. Even when I have only the 2) connection attached w/out the 1). My question, can the 2) connection really be used or I need to get a DVI cable instead for the connection? Have anyone tried using DVI cable with DVI-HDMI adapter to work on 5670 dual monitor?

Thanks

P/s: The card won't detect the 2) connection.
