Hey guys, how can I add a second external monitor for my Lenovo Ideapad 100 laptop (Specs: Intel core i3-5005U CPU @ 2.00GHz with Intel HD Graphics 5500).

My laptop has only one HDMI port for display output. I'm currently using a HDMI to VGA converter for my first external monitor (with VGA and DVI ports). Thanks for your help.

I've done this before. As long as the adapter works, you should be able to first make the monitor your primary display, then using the laptop's settings, change the display to a secondary display, and it will become a second screen for your laptop. Easy. :)
