Hey everyone,

I'm new to this and need some help.

I recently bought a GT70-Dominator Pro-888 from best buy and it claims that it can display up to three monitors with the Matrix multi-monitor display technology. I'm having trouble displaying the 3rd monitor.

2 of the monitors are using the GTX 880M and the 3rd not that is not working is using the Intel HD 4600.


Video Card:
Nvida: GTX 880M
Intel HD 4600

Montiors:
3x ASUS VG248QE

Connection im using:
HDMI - (WORKING)
Mini display to HDMI (WORKING)
VGA to HDMI (NOT WORKING)

Could it be counting the laptop monitor as one of the 3?

the computer supports laptop monitor and 3x external monitors so it can show up to 4 display.

How exactly are you connecting the VGA->HDMI? You need an active adapter for that since you have to convert the digital signal to an analog one.

you could have the problem with the hdmi to vga connection, they are not really compatible connections. What converter are you using

I'm currently using Belkin - HDMI-to-VGA Adapter.

Is there another adapter that I can use?

You are better off using a vga monitor. Is that an active adaptor?

It's not a active adapter. It's a shame because my monitors don't have a VGA connection.
