Can I use the HDMI 2 port to link to another monitor (to function as monitor 3)?

No, Hdmi 1 and 2 are inputs only to the monitor, they are not out put drivers.

Yes this will work for a third monitor. It is an active adapter like advertised.

In short, no probs with any of your choices. You can actually run 3 displays. The mini hdmi port can be ported to a standard hdmi. The DVI port can be converted to a standard hdmi as well but it will not have audio stream. both DVI and mini hdmi can also be converted to display port. DVI + HDMI would be a better choice for imagebquality and convenience.

You have the built-in monitor, and a vga port as well as an hdmi port. The settings detect for multiple monitors. I would expect that, therefore, you could do as you asked. However, I have not tried this so will not certify. The vga port can be used as a second monitor, while the hdmi can be plugged into HD tv etc. Vga does not carry sound, hdmi does. If you need more of an answer, you can advise exactly what you are trying to accomplish. Remember there are also other ports and wireless available as well. I would think you could do whatever you need to do since this is well-equipped laptop.

Display port is supposed to be the best transfer of signal. I would advise using it if you can.

i have 2 monitors hooked up - 1 through standard VGA and 1 through a DVI -> HDMI connector (the computer has an HDMI port). but they are old monitors, and it took a bit of doing to find the correct windows drivers. but it is doable.

Hmm. Not entirely sure on that. I did have it on my monitor and HDTV through the HDMI at the same time so i wouldn't see why a third monitor wouldn't work. But not 100% sure on that.

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

no it will not work, you will need to purchase an **active** display-port adapter in order to do 3 monitors. Atleast one of your 3 monitors will need to be set up with an active port and the other two can be hooked up with any other type of connection.

Yep, that's my setup. I'm almost certain you can even hook up a third to the DisplayPort.

You can connect two displays with what comes in the box. You will need to buy mini active display port to whatever (hdmi, dvi etc) for each additional display. Active is important and, from what I remember, there are some adapters that say they are active and won't work.It was a while ago, but I used 8 Accell B087B from Amazon and that works fine.

You most definitely can. In a matter of fact. I have 3 Dell monitors as well. Keep in mind that you will have to get a DVI-I splitter in order to split one of your DVI inputs.

I doubt it. I used to add a 2nd & 3rd monitor. You might contact Diamond to confirm.

I have not tried it as a 3rd monitor but I see no reason why it would not work as a 3rd. The Mimo monitor receives both data and power from a single USB cable.

There should be 2 VGA ports IIRC and an HDMI. Try it with a different monitor too!!

No. Both must be digital connections. DVI and HDMI. You can use converter on either port
