    does anyone know whether if envy 14 will output to two external displays? i just saw a post on the displayport to dvi issue on the envy 14. i wonder whether if this case is isolated or applies to all the envy 14 out there. thanks

    Can anyone get their Envy 14 to drive 2 external monitors AND the laptop panel at the same time?

    I'm unable to do it. The HDMI output won't activate in this setup. I tinkered with CCC to no avail.

    Thanks,
    James

    Erathostenes was able to do it. If you look in the reviews on first page of owner's thread, reviews in progress, he showed pics and I believe explained how to do it.

    No joy here. Tried what he said and I get 'Unable to save the configuration' or something to that effect. I'll post a screenshot later. CCC specifically says it'll have to disable one of the displays to enable the third...

    Anyone else having this issue?
