Sharing buttons:
hello everyone I'm going to show you
very quickly here how to connect three
monitors to your laptop is easier than
you think
I looked everywhere and I just could not
find an easy fast tutorial to tell me
how to do it
so I'm going to tell you here in less
than five minutes exactly what you need
to do to connect three or more monitors
to your laptop okay so here we go there
is the three of them and here is my lap
okay so if your laptop has HDMI output
obviously that will go to one of the
monitors over here in the VGA will go to
the VGA monitor most of them have VGA
but some laptops may not have HDMI so
what do we have here okay we have the
VGA all laptops have these we have USB s
over here and right here in the middle
we have HDMI now if you do not have HDMI
that's okay
these can this can also work okay
remember that a laptop can only output
two monitors at a time only two now for
three you need extra equipment in here
it's these little device and there is
many of them around this particular
device is called a USB display adapter
that's what you need it's a USB display
adapters what it does it allows your
computer to use a USB connection which
in this case is this one right here it
turns that USB into a display adapter
through this particular little adapter
right here okay these really handy
device over here has also an adapter
right here for either DVI or VGA I
happen to have a DVI monitor over here
so I just use the DVI that is justa that
is what comes
with the adapter over here is just right
out of the box is VBI but if you have a
monitor that is VGA meaning it takes
this particular blue connection that's
okay this little device comes with an
adapter that you can use that you will
plug in over here and then will convert
the signals to VGA for you so you can
have multiple VGA s if all your monitors
are VGA s then you can have all of them
like this one okay then you will have
the same connector coming out of here
through the adapter that you will plug
in here it comes in the box when you buy
this little device these little device
you can buy a an electronic store like
Fry's or computer say you know a store
like that so there we go three monitors
right here
to summarize one more time my setup over
here you have one for VGA one which is
the USB using this particular adapter
and then the other one is using my DVR
my HDMI and again if you do not have
HDMI in your laptop that's okay you will
need to have more of these
unfortunately okay I've seen people
using like a hub a USB hub and also
works in case you only have one USB over
here then you will go it will go up from
the USB out to a hub a little hub that
will give you more connections to USB
and then out from the little hub into
these devices but hopefully you have at
least a two or three USB most laptop
these days have you know at least three
USB this one would still have one extra
over here and then I have another one
right over here which that's for my
wireless keyboard mouse right there
alright if you were curious to know what
laptop I'm here
this one is it Lenovo ThinkPad Edge it's
an e 530 it's a core 7 that's beside the
point but if you wanted to to know what
laptop art was using so there is if you
have any questions about how to do this
feel free to let me know and I'll be
happy to help you well I hope you
enjoyed the rest of your day
see you later
