with a laptop you will need a 'break out' box, there not to cheap though. for a normal PC you can get a second video card, but you will have to get a PCI or PCIE cause your computer only has a single AGP slot. most cards have 2 out puts so you should be able to have 4 in total this way.

im not sure about your specific card, but some cards can only do 2 out of those three. but the best way to find out is to try it.

There is the Parhelia video card which have three video ouputs, but it's relatively expensive (330Ã¢âÂ¬ approximatively).

With a additional PCI card (I've got a Radeon 9000 AGP), can we use two projectors ? Is existing a PCI card with enough peformances ?
