oooops new computer doesnt support extended desktop

[djbikeerrob]

I screwed up i never thought to ask if my brand new core I7 could support multiple displays ans guess what... it doesnt. now what do i do? hoster needs to use that second display to show the words correct? i am not sure yet if they will take it back and sell me a different one in all the specs i looked at multiple displays were not even mentioned. Any help would be appreciated by the way it is a lenovo y480 great specs on the machine it simply doent support multiple displays. am i as screwed as i think i am?

I'm surprised myself if your new I7 could not support multiple displays

Can you post the make & model # back to us, perhaps we could look it up and better inform you of how to overcome this.

According to the spec I just looked up, it has an HDMI output socket which would allow you to connect to an external TV with HDMI connection socket. Now as this is not always convenient type of connection when in your local bar you can get adapters that convert that signal to an analog video or svideo output.
If you have a TV with HDMI input then just purchase an HDMI cable and try that for now. I will try and get you info on the Video adapters for you.

To add to the above, if you search for HDMI to video converter I came up with this: http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Composite.../dp/B0047PDBP0

If you search you may find a better deal or someone else might know of a better deal for you.
