Hello,

I've tried hooking up dual monitors to my AMD Radeon HD 7700 but I can't get it to work.. My first monitor is connected to 1 (see picture) and works fine, the second monitor also works fine while connected to 1.

I have bought a VGA to HDMI cable (which I believe is useless) and a DVI 24+1 (which fits into the DVI under 1) to VGA adapter. I've tried to connect both monitors which these, without success. Am I doing something wrong, or do I need something else to make it work, or is it not possible to connect 2 monitors to this video card?

If both of your monitors has the dvi connection then its just a matter of setting up the second monitor in the catalyst software.
 
Monitor 1 has a DVI and VGA connection (pic 1)
Monitor 2 (old 4:3 monitor) doesn't have a visible connection (pic 2 & 3)

I believe the vga to hdmi adapter needs to be an active adapter to be able to transfer the signal. Whats the exact model number of adapter you have?
 
Thanks a bunch :)

Does this go for every second monitor, or just this one since it is an older model?

If you were using only that monitor as your only monitor, you would be alright I think. Its just that you are using a vga monitor as your second monitor using a dvi connection.
