Vostro 3560 - HDMI and VGA at the same time?

Can I hook up 2 external monitors and get them to work? I hooked up a monitor to each, and Control Panel\Appearance and Personalization\Display\Screen Resolution recognizes the 3rd monitor, but when I choose "extend desktop to this display" and click Apply, it doesn't work. It would be awesome to be able to do this!

The system can only drive two simultaneous displays -- to make two externals work, you would have to disable the internal screen.

You'll need to use a USB>Video adapter such as the Diamond DV100, which is a USB 3.0 product and supports both VGA/DVI and HDMI outputs.
