I have a graphics card with one DVI-D dual link output and one DP output. How would I get two monitors to work (Split Screen). Is a DVI-D splitter ok?

Unlikely the splitter will work because the monitor needs the full DVI-D resolution. I would try to find an adapter for your DP.

I would use a DisplayPort to DVI-D adapter, especially since the monitor requires DVI-D for high resolutions. I would think splitting it would reduce the video bandwidth or bits per pixel.

Tried to use a dvi-d to hdmi adapter and it didn't work past the bios... Gluck

I haven't tried 2 monitors but I don't see a reason why it won't support 2 monitors. I mostly use it a HTPC running windows 7 64bit and XBMC directly connected to my TV via HDMI

Yes, the card does support dual monitors, however, I do not recommend this card at all. I am currently in the process of trying to get a replacement from the manufacturer as the card overheats, making a loud noise constantly.

You may need to verify it with your computer manufacturer on how to setup dual monitor. It usually require two graphics cards and a motherboard that supports dual monitor.

Yes it does support dual monitors. One DVI & One VGA so your monitors will have to support those above configurations as you can not use an adapter for DVI to VGA.

yes, I can confirm as well. One DVI port, one VGA port. I am using both in a triple monitor setup (with one being the laptop screen).

Only if you have the DMS-59 connector, its Wider by 1/4 of an inch then DVI. If you have a DVI then NO!. You will need another splitter for DVI to 2x VGA. see http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&field-keywords;=DVI+to+2x+VGA

No don't work with 2 monitors simultaneously, only with one on HDMI or DVI.

It will connect one VGA connector (such as computer output) to another (such as monitor input).It is not designed to split one output into dual outputs.

No. There is just a single input on the splitter. It allows you to have the same screen view on two separate DVI monitors, but it is not capable of providing the ability to dispay two separate programs or files at the same time.

Yes, you can run multiple displays. I bought the card primarily so that I could connect HDMI cable from the card to the monitor using HDMI port. I would suggest using the HDMI and the DVI ports on the card to the monitors, NOT the VGA port which would have the least video quality / resolutions support unless you do not have any monitors with HDMI connecitons. Then you will have to use VGA port.

No, DisplayPort's daisy chain feature requires all the links in the chain to be DisplayPort connections. DVI has a very different (and much older) signaling scheme, which cannot support multiple streams through a single cable, so there is no way to supply the extra data for the second monitor.

There is also a DVI output but I have not used multiple displays. However if I had to bet my life on it I would bet that if there are multiple outputs you would be able to use 2 monitors.

I have not found this to be possible - only two at a time.I typically do 2 DVI or 1 DVI + HDMI.

The card supports three options of inputHDMIDvi d dual link (might be dvi i dual link. Whatever dual link belongs to)And standard rgb input. So there is a possibility for the card to support a 3 monitor input.
