Yes, it is possible, but you need a multiple monitor software to do that.
I have tested a lot of them, and the one I found best for now is Actual Multiple Monitors. Works great. I have used it for over a year now with my triple monitor setup.

thx for sharing will look into that soon. smile.gif btw wanna ask one more thing is do u use both onboard graphics and gpu together for dual display or just gpu?
if anyone use both gpu n onboard graphics do let me know. What I've read so far is enable igpu on bios and set it as main display first in order for it to work.

cuz my board have this interesting feature called Virtu Universal VMP which sort of combines both GPU and IGPU to give best performance but currently still kinda buggy and not supported on all games sad.gif
But the main reason is that I have a HDMI-DVI Converter that I would like to use on one of my display but my GTX 650 only provides micro-hdmi instead of standard hdmi L&==sad.gif

well i trust you've downloaded the latest drivers from lucid. i personally have no experience with this quite interesting technology.
and maybe you have to buy a microhdmi to dvi converter. but if you want, you can try using the microhdmi to hdmi converter that usually bundles with gpu nowadays
though as the saying goes, less cables/converters, less chance of failure
good luck in your venture thumbup.gif

Is there any way to make the taskbar extend to both monitors? I used to have to shift the taskbar to right side or left side (vertically).

i got 1 samsung syncmaster, and then boom a new IPS panel emerge. thus i wanna try that as well, so I bought a Dell S2415H. I first tried pairing it with my R9 290 (I'm a noob), as it was my first time I took quite a while to understand the mechanic... any idea on how to combine the screen into one? not 2 screen on 2 monitors? i'm using gtx 1060 now.. thanks

Is it possible to set up 3/4 monitors with just 1 HDMI port? I mean i do have other ports as well, but I just want to use the HDMI port and connect it to multiple screens, but sadly i have only 1 hdmi port.

Im using a GTX960. And I'm currently using 2 DELL SE2417HG.

Will a splitter work? Does it just clone the screen or allow extended desktop?

Thanks..
