I had 3 monitors briefly on my home (MS Windows 8) system, 2 were on a Nvidia GT640, the 3rd was hot plugged into the onboard (Intel i5-3570k HD4000) and it just came up as another screen without any intervention or even rebooting. When I first got the GT640, I had one monitor plugged into each until I got another suitable DVI cable. -- john r pierce 37N 122W somewhere on the middle of the left coast
