I have a Radeon HD 7700 series graphics card. It has 4 ports on the back, a DisplayPort, HDMI, 2 DVI. Right now I have Eyefinity displaying 3 screens, and my goal was to use another smaller monitor above them as a HUD for certain games. I was originally just going to try plugging in all 4 monitors into the one graphics card, but I found out quickly that that doesn't work.

Next I tried plugging the extra/top monitor to my motherboard integrated card (VGA), but I'm not sure if this can work or not, which is where I need help. This is my motherboard: http://www.asrock.com/mb/AMD/960GM-VGS3%20FX/

I plugged it in, but it gets no signal. I followed the instructions in the manual for the mb, but all I succeeded in doing was somehow shutting off the signal to all but one monitor. I'll have to unplug the 4th monitor to get things back to normal.

Any ideas?
