Hi @jimplas I believe the standard desktop on its own has a limitation of 3 displays connected to the onboard connectors.
I believe the only way to get a quad display working would be via an add in graphics card, however that would involve using a display port and DVI or hdmi and DVI on the add in card plus 2 displays connected to the remaining two display ports.

You can use 2 VGA to display port adapters to get 3 monitors.

After that you need USB2 to VGA
