You can buy a monitor switch box or a second video card to connect two SVGA monitors to one computer. You'll need Windows 98 or Mac OS 6.0.7 or newer.





Steps:

1. If you have a Windows computer, see if your current video card can support dual monitors. (Read Microsoft Knowledge Base article 182708 at support.microsoft.com.)



2. If it can't, buy a monitor switch box and connect both monitors to it. Or buy a new video card that has dual monitor ports.



3. If it can, buy and install a second video card. Read "How to Install a Video Card," in the Related eHows, for installation instructions.



4. Reboot the computer.



5. Set preferences for your new monitor in the Monitors or Monitors and Sound control panel (Macintosh) or in the Display control panel (Windows).



Please have a look to the SOURCE below, for tips and etc.





Good Luck

what graphics card does this pc have ? Basically you need a graphics card that will support 2 monitors as well as possibly a dvi to vga convertor if both monitors are CRT and not TFT
