question

I already have a projector acting as my extended screen, now I want another monitor to mirror the extended screen too. Is that possible?
Asked by: Anonymous
Yes you can. You can use the adapter mentioned to connect the two. O. Your computer, use the control panel display settings and select project to a second screen and duplicate .My recommendation is to avoid a USB connection because it requires some cumbersome software. VGA to hdmi micro or mini usb produces the result without the pain in the neck software.
