connecting outputs

My laptop has three outputs on it. I'd love to run multiple outputs but enabling one disables the next. Is there anyway to make these outputs act like a dual or triple head to go?

I wouldn't count on it. The laptop probably isn't wired to send voltage to all of them at the same time, and the GPU probably couldn't support it anyway.

But... there are a lot of hacked video drivers out there. :evil: You could try a Google search for your hardware and see if anyone got crazy.

@Coz3r: Are you running a XMG Schenker notebook?
