No gimmicks, no atrocious intro music, no unnecessary blabbering and straight to the business. One of the best videos for setting up multiple display. Well done.
I am in tech support and I must say that this video is comprehensive and targets everything I wanted to learn about docking stations from A to Z. Well done Rajat!
@@mihalyfreeman5928 I have a DELL Laptop core i5 (8G Ram), I just want to use 2 monitors, I thought I could use the VGA and the HDMI at the same time, it didn't work, could anyone help please?
This is the best video ive seen so far. Clearly shows how to set the screens up and shows the most cost effective solutions to setting up multiple screens. THANK YOU VERY MUCH!
the best video on youtube, no docking bullshit stations that don't work with old pc, and most people have old pc. connecting at least 2 monitors is really great.
This has been the most helpful video of all the ones I've viewed. Not only showing how to connect the displays but also showing the settings that are available. 2 thumbs up!
I can't thank you enough. I had several pieces of old equipment and was able to connect them and make it work. Saved from having to purchase new! Thank you!
thank you!! have been struggling with this for a couple weeks...I have the exact same set up as you and have been trying splitters, adapters, etc...nothing works...I know this will! thank you!
Thanks for the clarity. The difference between HDMI splitter which just mirrors the PC and USB to VGA adapter is critical and this is well explained. Thanks Rajat
Thank you very much. I have a USB type C connection on my Dell Inspiron 17 3000 but it is not DP Alt mode capable. I purchased the USB to HDMI adapter and it worked great! Only 1 issue in case someone else experiences this. When I connected the extra (second monitor) to my laptop using the adapter, the picture worked great. However I lost all sound. Quick and easy fix I found on another video was to go into sound settings and make sure my laptop speakers were set as the default for sound playback. For some reason when I plugged in the monitor it was trying to use the monitor for sound. Simply making sure laptop speakers were the default fixed this issue and now everything works great. Also the adapter came in the drivers to install on a small disk. The instructions said the drivers would pop up automatically when you connect the adapter but that did not happen. So I just used the disk, installed the drivers. Then when I plugged in the monitor everything worked great. Very simple and easy to set up. Thank you again so much for this video. Straight and to the point and very helpful. Probably the best video on this subject!!
Just wanted to say thank you! You're littearly the only person that made normal video how to connect laptop to two monitors without hdmi splitter. I even went to 10tech shops to ask them is it possible to connect second monitor with usb to hdmi, all of them laughed saying its not possible only via usb type C. You saved me, thank you!
That made so much sense thank you. My desk top computer has an HDMI and a VGA , I looked when watching this so I shall get another monitor. Brilliant and helpful video thank you so much xx
Thank you so much! I just got a new monitor and wanted to have a use for the old one too! Now I can stream perfectly with interacting to my viewer! Helpful!!
Best explanation that I’ve seen. My work PC does fine because it has a dock with multiple video outputs, but I want to use multiple monitors for my personal laptop, and your video gives me the way!
I’m so excited I was fixing to order another connector that wasn’t going to work! I had no idea an HDMI to USB existed. I had gotten vga to hdmi but it wouldn’t stay plugged in. Also, was going to try a splitter. Thank you for your help. Those docks are a little to pricey for me, so trying out cheaper solutions
Great video. All good information. No fluff, no drone footage of you jumping off a cliff into the ocean, no intros of you playing with your dog or cooking in the kitchen or getting a pie in the face. No video of you snuggling with your girlfriend. No video of you peeling out in your new ferrari. No corny jokes or comical cutaways. If you wanted to hit the computer with a sledge hammer that would be ok. So refreshing! Thanks!
THANK YOU SO MUCH I HAVE BEEN FINDING WAYS TO EXPAND MY DESKTOP AND THIS VIDEO HELP ME OUT OF ALL THE VIDEOS I SAW THIS ONE HELPED OUT A LOT THANK YOU ...
very helpful. I have the same setup but unable to connect the second monitor. Thank you for letting us know to download the driver. I totally forgot about the driver and that is why it wasn't working for me. Watched multiple videos and no one said anything about the driver. Thank you once again. Keep up your good work.
I usually have two 23" monitors at work. So, working on a small laptop screen for everything has put a major strain on my eye sight. The cost is out-of-pocket so I found two monitors at a reasonable price but did not know the adapter needed. Thanks you.
Thank you!! I watched multiple videos and yours explained simple and easy to understand where I got stuck in the settings part of moving the mouse from monitor to monitor. And the direction I wanted it to go! Thank you so much!! Excellent!!
Thank you so much, Rajat! Your explanation is very clear. I got the adapter and follow the steps you mentioned here. Now I have two monitors plus my laptop one. I'm so happy!
Thx for this video.-Glad to have found your channel. I use the Pluggable USB to VGA converter. What I found is that you need a powered USB hub if you wanna connect multiple adapters- else screens don't power up.
lol wasted some time looking for someone to explain the actual setting up the order of the screens, till I found u!! thanks a lot pretty clear and quick
Thanks mate I'm on a laptop with a vga port and a hdmi port. I bought a vga splitter as the monitors only support vga inputs, but this only mirrors my screen. I will buy a hdmi to vga adapter now to allow for extended screens
Thank you so much!! Not computer savvy at all and I needed a second monitor due to working from home. You made adding the second monitor so easy. Much thanks!
Thank you very much. Excellent explanation with easy understandable tutorial. I got my new monitor the other day (HDMI and VGA port) and looking for tutorial and just found yours. The laptop and monitor working now with the HDMI. I was thinking about the HDMI splitter but now changed my mind and ordered the VGA to USB cable and would be ready to set-up my other (older VGA only) monitor. Again, appreciate your video.
thisis the video i needed, thanks to you. how's BUDDY doing? I an big FAN of BUDDY. I knew you because of BUDDY. I subcribed to BUDDY channel 1year back.
There are two types of the various adapters, passive and active. Make sure you buy an active adapter of the type you want to ensure all the features are present.
I have a quick question. When I'm on my personal desktop I can fully use the multiple monitor features, but when I log into my remote work desktop I can't drag over to the second monitor. Is there a fix for that?
Now that I think about it I didn't get a three screen option in the detect screen. My laptop isn't it's own screen. It was duplicated on the first external monitor. When I hit detect I only get 112 & 3 with a two screen option.
Well done Rajant!! THanks, it's a nice video to spread one to multiple screens but it be much more effective if you worked on different screens and showed how to slide content from one screen to another.....do you know what I mean?
thank you for such a detailed video, other youtubers have either explained it but did not show the adapters to be used for clarification , or some youtubers have simply added unnecessary music and stupid animations. your approach is starightforward, with all necessary explanations and no unnecessary garbage music thanks again .....
Very informative.. the info in the last part regarding hdmi splitter is the answer that im looking for. If its able to extend or its just mirror the dispalay of your PC.. very helpful.. thanks.
I not only just liked it, it's an awesome video where you fully explained how to extend and many more features. Keep posting such wonderful piece of work Thank you!
Thank you for the video. Quick follow up question: You connected to two ports in a laptop. Will this work with a docking station or USB C adaptor, where you take a VGA from one monitor and HDMI from another monitor but connect to single USB C port of the laptop? Here is the set up: 1. You have a type C adapter, which has both VGA and HDMI port but one type C output 2. You take monitor 1 to VGA and Monitor 2 to HDMI and then connect type C to laptop Type C input Question is do you see two monitors or three? (including laptop) Sorry this is the best I can do in terms of typing the query. If something is not clear feel free to ask.
Awesome video. 👌Thanks Rajat for explaining this so well. I will explore more videos from yur channel to learn windows and Excel. I liked and subscribed yur channel. I have to start using dual monitor from tomorrow and was very nervous but you explained it all.Bhagwan apko bhut safalta de.❤❤. Could u please make a video on how to make folders, save it and zip folder, compress it and all.😀😀 I am soon gonna need that.
Very good and helpful video for all of us. Thanks dear. But I think it will happened when Laptop GPU should also support the more than two screens. Plz correct if am wrong.
Brilliant video very instructive. Really glad you showed the 2 types of connections - VGA and HDMI to USB. Plus you showed how to get the various options going on the 3 monitors.
Thanks for the helpful video. I need to add 3 screens to my laptop. Am i best off buying a docking station? I currently have a desktop setup with 4 screens and I am putting together a laptop + 3 screens that i can easily transport.
Thank you. This was a huge help! It was very thorough, easy to follow, easy to understand, and helped me fix an issue with my laptop that I have had for awhile.
Yes you can set the laptop setting to do nothing. Look for "Additional Power Options" then set the "Choose what closing the lid does" setting to nothing.

Is it possible to turn off the laptop screen then and only use the two monitors? Great video
Yes you can set the laptop setting to do nothing. Look for "Additional Power Options" then set the "Choose what closing the lid does" setting to nothing.
