I am trying to run 3 monitors from my graphics card, as listed in the specs, but it only picks up one of the monitors on the splitter the other just says no connection or signal. I am not even sure if it is possible to run 3 monitors?????

It picks up all three monitors

In the graphics it picks up all three monitors but only displays 2. When I click on properties for the third monitors it shows the onboard graphics where the two that display show the Graphics card. even they are connected through a splitter to the graphics card.......Article didn't really help but thanks

Display port

Ok I found out that I can only run two monitors through the VGI or Hdmi. The third fourth and fith can be run through the Displayport.So I purchased the adaptor display port to VGA. now the graphics card picks up the display and says it there but the display says no signal.......help this is getting very fustrating

3rd monitor might need the correct input type selected? (the monitor level, nothing to do with windows, just to be clear)
