How to connect 5 display to my Pavilion?

My Pavilion PC have 1 PCIe x16 and 3 PCIe x1 slots.  I would like to connect to 1 console (VDI/VGA) and 4 HDTV using HDMI, allow me to display different content in each screens.  I was told by HP that if I add a grachics card, it would disable the integrated video port.  Anyone knows if is possible to create this configuration?  If yes, how do I do it?  I know I will need extra video cards, maybe even HDMI splitter.  Thx in advance. 

You would need a graphics card that supports 5 displays. This would most require an upgraded power supply as well.
As an alternate, you can use your current "console" DVI/VGA port for one display and add 4 USB-to-video adapters such as the EVGA UV Plus+ UV39 to drive the 4 HDMI displays.

  • How to connect external display to iMac

    which port do I use to connect external display to my iMac ?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Depending on the iMac you have, you have different ports: Mini-DVI, Mini DisplayPort or Thunderbolt. Mini DisplayPort is available in 2009 and newer iMacs, and Thunderbolt is available in the Mid 2011 and Late 2012 iMac.
    You have to use one of those ports to connect an external display. You will probably have to look for an adapter, depending on the port the external screen has got

    This may seem an obvious question but the problem is that I am currently abroad, having bought a Mac Mini to replace my very old PowerMac G4, so I cant check if the cable that currently connects the old machine to my Cinema Display will also fit into the new Mac Mini.
    Any help or suggestions are gratefully received.

    Hi
    From my point of few its not possible to use the HDMI and VGA port simultaneously.
    HDMI is an digital output, the VGA supports analogue signal.
    If you want to use three different displays (1 internal + 2 external monitors) I recommend you to use some external devices; for example Dynadock

  • How connect a 27 cinema display to HP Pavilion with VGA video output

    how connect a 27 cinema display to HP Pavilion with VGA video output

    If it is a thunderbolt version of the apple 27" display, you don't.  The TB displays can only work with a TB source.
    I also think you are out of luck with the mini-displayport versions of the apple 27" as well.   This would imply converting an analog VGA output  to a digital input of the 27".  I suspect that there is not enough data supplied by VGA for that to work and I do not believe any adapters exist for this.

  • How to connect a new 27" LED Cinema Display to an older Mac Mini?

    I bought a 27" LED Cinema Display (no Thunderbolt) but don't know how to connect it to my wife's older Mac Mini. I presume the Atlona adaptor is the solution, but I haven't bougt one yet.

    The cord attached to the display splits into a Mini DisplayPort, USB, and a MagSafe connector (for powering a laptop).
    There is a separate connector on the back of the display for the AC power cord.

  • How to connect your hdmi tv to the Thunderbolt display?

    Hello,
    I've just got my Thunderbotl display which is really nice, but i have question and i hope this would be possible.
    How to connect an external display, in my case the HDMI tv to the thunderbolt display?
    The connection would looks something like this:
    Macbookpro (late 2011 15') -> Thunderbolt cable -> Thunderbolt display -> Thunderbolt to hdmi adapter -> HDMI Display
    But currently i cannot get any screen on my hdmi display (it remeans black).
    p.s. runing latest version of OS X
    Thanks

    See secrions 14 and 16.
    If your MacBook Pro does support two external displays you may be able to use your TV with a Thunderbolt display.  While a Mini DisplayPort adapter won't work plugged directly into a Thunderbolt display, it will work if a Thunderbolt drive is connected between the displays.  This reportedly works with Seagate GoFlex drives.  LaCie drives don't work plugged into Thunderbolt displays.

  • How do I connect multiple displays to a Lenovo 405

    how do I connect multiple displays to a Lenovo 405 running windows 7?  I tried a video card but the built in amd video port would not function with the video card plugged in.
    Moderator Note; subject edit, post moved to here

    hi harry13,
    Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
    If you're referring to the Lenovo® H405, this unit has an integrated VGA and HDMI out according to this pdf data sheet.
    If you'll be using a flat panel monitor (that usualy has a VGA connector and a single link DVI D digital interface), you will need to connect 1 monitor to the VGA out and use an HDMI to single link DVI-D converter on the other monitor. You might need to scan for hardware changes under the device manager to identify the monitor that's connected to the HDMI to DVI-D converter. Note that you need to change the video setup under BIOS to IGD or the onboard graphics.
    If you'll be using your discrete video adapter for the multi-monitor setup, you must change the video setup to PEG under the BIOS and the video card must have a vga or hdmi/dvi out.
    Also, see these guides as a reference:
