As Richie says, either make use of the choice of outputs, you can get DVI-VGA convertor if necessary, or install another video card. I have a card with DVI and VGA, and another PCI card for the third screen.

There will be a sort of adapter U use to plug your monitor into the DVI socket on the graphics card! Then I'd update Ur Graphics Drivers and after that U should beable to acces it on the System tray ATI Icon!
