Dual monitor on iGPU

Drown

Hello,

I only have  DVI ports (2) on my graphics card, and my sister is away for a month so I'd like to use her monitor too. I don't have another DVI to VGA adapter (both monitors are VGA), so I tried plugging one to the GPU via the adaptor (what I'm using currently) and I plugged the other one on the motherboard's VGA output instead. Nothing is showing up, the second monitor is powered but it's not recognized in the Windows menu for displays. I tried pressing the "Detect" button, rebooting, but nothing changes.

 

Here are my specs : 

 

i7-4770K

Asus Z87-A

GTX 780

Two 23'' monitors with VGA input

 

Is it possible at all? Any help would be appreciated!

 

Thanks a lot. :)

Thanks a lot for the fast answer mate, there was indeed a settings to allow multiple monitors off the iGPU. I enabled it in the BIOS and now it's working fine. :)

Thanks again, I really appreciated.
