I have two monitors, Dell M991 17" CRT and Silicon Graphics PlugNplay 19" CRT.. and I have this cable that plugs into the VGA out on my pc, and has two outputs coming from it where the monitors plug in..

When I connect them both, they dimm, probably about 40%.. both monitors work fine when hooked up alone, but when together they dimm and they also get a tad blurry.. barely noticable, but still there.

Can someone explain to me what's going on? I thought this cable would work no problem, but I guess I know nothing about monitors and VGA outputs lol..

Is there something I can do to correct this and use this as it is, without adding another PCI card for the second monitor..?

Please help,

Thanks!
