   My laptop allows me to switch the output to an external monitor completely, or   
   optionally watch the external and the local monitor at the same time.  But it   
   only works with the output the laptop is designed for.   
      
   There would be no way to support 2 external monitors with basic laptop,   
   natively.  You would need an additional video cards.   
      
   What brand/model laptop are you using?  Does it claim to support more than 1   
   external?
