Hi All,
I have been having a miserable time trying to get my quad monitor setup to work. I have an Inspiron 530, and I am beginning to believe that my motherboard simply does not support two video cards at the same time.
Pentium 2 dual core
Upgraded Ram
Running on Vista (PC not for gamming)
I have 4 video cards at my disposal (all have 1DVI out and 1VGA out)
4 ASUS 20” widescreen monitors on stand (all have both DVI and VGA in)
Motherboard
1PCIe slot
1 mini PCI slot
2PCI slots
I have tried almost every single combination of video cards possible; PCIE and PCI, PCI and PCI, video card cards of diff manufacturers, Video cards of same manufacturers, I even bought an external; USB hub that created 3 DVI outs ($189), got it home and realized it requires a USB port and a “mini display port” (looks like mine USB) at the same time! My pc does not have a mini display port out.
I can only get two monitors to work at the same time (off the same card).
Has anyone ever had a quad monitor display setup with a dell Inspiron 530?? If so HOW!
Please help, I’ve got all these monitors setup, and they are going to waste
