So Basically I am not able to set two up, because I only have one DVI Port on the back of my computer, and I have no experience with setting up dual monitors so I am kind of lost. Any help? Both monitors are Dell U3211H.

I don't know what graphics card you have, but they all have a combo of DVI, HDMI and Display port connections.    Your other monitor connections on the card might have plastic caps over them you remove.  Then you need a DVI to HDMI adapter as an example to connect the second monitor, unless your monitor has DVI and HDMI. 

Then right click desktop, Nvidia Control Panel, Setup Multi monitor and set up the displays how you wish.

Good Luck. Big%20Smile

What GPU do you have?

I'm quite certain that there is more connections than the one DVI port. You may have to run a display port or HDMI for the other monitor.

I'm running dual monitors on a Vanquish2 with the GTX770.
