Can I hook up two monitor to my computer so my grandson can watch cartoons and i play games on another while b?
Depends on if your computer supports it, but most likely. You may need to buy a new graphics card or a splitter. Then as long as he doesn’t need to be doing any input to the computer, you can just drag the cartoon window to one window while you are playing your games. Just make sure neither the game nor the cartoon is in full screen mode or it will black out the other monitor. Post your computer specs, or just go to Best Buy or some electronic store and get help from someone who works there to help you figure out what you need to buy.
For many professions nowadays, such as graphic designer, music producer or other creative jobs, there is a need for more than one monitor per computer. If you want to work with two monitors you can buy a monitor switch box or a second video card to connect two SVGA monitors to one computer. You’ll need Windows XP or Mac OS X or newer for the instructions in this eHow.
