    How do I do it hardware wise? Do I just add another graphics card to increase outputs then set it up in windows?

    Yeah, Or you can get one graphics card with enough outputs to do it. Depends what motherboard you have and if it has a slot for a second graphics card.

    Any Nvidia card which supports Nvidia Surround or an AMD card that supports Eyefinity should do the trick.

    What monitors are you using? VGA? DVI? HDMI?

    err....... ill get back to you. I am going to try and bring whatever iv got lying around back into use to see if it is a system i can use. Seeing as most cards only have 1 type of each output I was thinking I would just use a different output for each monitor. It wont be too noticeable Its just for charts & spreadsheets etc.

    Do you know what card and motherboard you currently have in your PC? Will need to know so I can work out if it will play nice with another GFX card...
