I found a pic of the mobo that shows only solder pads where the DVI
connector would go. Seems HP saved 15˘ and destroyed any chance of
dual-output on this PC.
I agree on adding an external card, however, I'm not sure I agree with
the suggestion for an 8400: I would only use the 8400 if PCI was the
only choice. My 8400 runs quite hot which requires noisy fan cooling;
I suspect one of the newer Nvidia offerings in PCIe would work with
less heat.
