simple, buy something like this
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814998101

This plugs into your DVI port, and the VGA cable goes to the back of that.

You extend the desktop by right click on the desktop.
You should see both displays and you can select extended desktop and rearrange their positions if needed.

You can buy a dvi to vga adapter or cable to connect the second monitor.

The mother board is MSI H81 Chipset Motherboard and the graphic card is
Nvidia Geforce GTX 750 Ti 2GB I don't no if that changes anything.

oh. You're asking if you can plug in one monitor to your motherboard and one to your GPU. Unfortunately, the answer is no, you can't.

I don't know if something like this would allow you to use both monitors at once, but that would definitely allow you to plug them both in.

No I just put the mother board and graphics card just in case. I have no clue about this but I do no it can't be a splitter because u can't use the monitors as a extended display.
