So I have a Palit GTX 660 (OC Edition) graphics card. I've always had 2 monitors with me. Then when I decided to add another one, the screen on the 3rd monitors shows "No Signal" box. When I go to the display settings in windows, it shows my 3rd monitor. (Btw I have 3 different monitors.)
How can I configure them? I don't want 1 long desktop. I want 1 main display and 2 extensions.

well, im not 100% sure, but i think that one of them has to be connected to displayport, but im not sure. it says on the manufactures website that the gtx 660 supports up to 4 monitors at a time.

Okay. So I've tried using the display port.
My connections:
Main display - VGA (from monitor) to VGA+DVI Adapter (to PC)
Second monitor - DVI Cable
Third Monitor - VGA (from Monitor) to VGA+Display port Adapter (to PC)

Third monitor is black. Windows only detects 2 monitors.

Try connecting the main monitor to the DVI and the second and third to the VGA+DVI and VGA+Display Port adapter.
