Good day

I have a dell latitude e6330

3.0 ghz intel dual core i7 - 3540m

It has a intel HD graphic Card 4000

OS - Windows 8

I have a VGA slot and Mini HDMI

Screen 1 - Mobile PC display (Laptop screen) - Connecting interface - N/A

Screen 2 - Samsung syncmaster p2450 - 24INCH - Connector interface - HDMI

screen 3 - Hp 17inch - connecting interface VGA

Machine does not have a display port only VGA AND MINI HDMI

I am trying to extend my screen to all desktops , however it does not allow me . i see all three but cannot all three at the same time

I can have screen 1 and screen 2 , but then screen 3 defaults to "disconnect this display"

I can have screen 2 and screen 3 , but then screen 1 defaults to "disconnect this display"

I can have screen 3 and screen 1 , but then screen 2 defaults to "disconnect this display"

I have tried every combination under screen resolution . however I cannot get this to work

I would like to extend all three screens

Thank you

Hello Navzo,

 

 

I understand you are having troubles setting up three displays configuration.

 

 

Let me apologize for any inconvenience this issue may be causing to you.

 

 

Three independent displays are supported in the following configurations:
  • If two of the displays are DisplayPort* monitors.
  • If one of the displays is an Intel® Wireless Display (Intel® WiDi).
  • If the built-in display is an Embedded DisplayPort* (eDP).

 

Most likely the motherboard of the laptop was not built to support three displays configuration. This is hardware limitation of the motherboard itself, not a limitation of the graphics controller.

 

 

The following link will provide more information about three displays configuration http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005556.html http://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/graphics-drivers/000005556.html

 

 

Let me know if you have or not any other inquiry.

 

 

Regards,

 

Fred
