Is it ok to use the high def output for my second monitor to run hoster and my other mtu programs? And what is DVI-D? is there anyway to adapt it back to the old style? where do i buy such a cable?? any type of splitter to run two monitors? Grrrrrr
It's almost 40 miles round trip to walmart, and nearly70 miles round trip to the nearest best buy store.
Leo said he finally got the gas pump to work so we can at least buy gas up here again.....

Is this a laptop or desktop computer?
Yes you can use HDMI for your secondary monitor (singers monitor). There is also a setting that Roy can help you with to change the audio back to the computer output instead of going to the TV which HDMI will try to do.
DVI-D is a digital computer monitor output that can be used for the newer flat screen LCD/LED types. It is a replacement for VGA output for these digital monitors.
