I have seen plugable videos where utilizing a USB 3.0 hub the owner of plugable uses several of the single adapters to have 7 monitors off of one computer. I wouldn't think this is any different.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYUdAWOGJ_Y

i have never tried that, but the instruction state that you can have up to 6 monitors.

Go to your control panel and look under display. If your laptop shows the option of extending your screen over multiple monitors then your laptop HAS the capability of doing so. Most laptops provide this option. However, as I've never used this device I cannot say for certain that it would work this way. I did want to correct some of the previous incorrect answers however in terms of capability.

Yeah, you don't have to use 2 monitors. You can use this instead of the mini display port.

I have a Dell Inspiron 660, Win 7, that I currently have 4 monitors running now. I don't see why it wouldn't work.

There is one HDMI port and one DVI port. So you will need an adapter. However, I wouldn't advise hooking up an additional monitor without upgrading the graphics card.

This only allows one additional monitor to be plugged in. In addition to a currently running monitor. This will not allow you to run 2 monitors plus your standard monitor. It will only allow a +1 monitor

I believe you asking if you can setup multiple monitors with in windows with this device, No, one input that is reproduced 4 times.

I'm not sure because I only use 3 monitors. There IS a selection to duplicate the display on monitors 1 AND 2, OR on monitors 1 AND 3. I don't know if you'd have the selection you want if 4 monitors were connected. I'd suggest that you email the manufacturer directly at support@visiontek.com and ask your question. Their website is at http://www.visiontek.com.

You need to buy two. Each adapter allows to connect one single monitor using USB port.

Not concurrently, in my experience.It will let you toggle between 2, if you have 3 connected.If you want to have a third monitor for basic 2-D stuff, you might get one of those add on USB-DVI/VGA devices, but they are CPU intensive.

This device put out the same videos as its input video.You can do what is stated only with the laptop built-in monitor and your TV or an external monitor. Then you can set one of the two monitors as the main and other as the extended display. It is technically possible but may not really practical because the size of the two monitors is too different.

yes, we have 2 monitors set up on this computer. We had to order cords for it I think.

I really don't know but that is an interesting question. Most laptops seem to have an easy way to use two screens and Windows will allow you to use more. You might try attaching a VGA monitor and trying for three that way, before springing for another USB monitor. If you try it and it works out, let us all know.
