buy vidoe cards that support two or more monitors
you may need to get 3 video cards or get one with two outputs and get a second video card so you can run it. make sure you have the slots on your mother board to support that too

You will need 3 video out ports on your computer. Two is typical for todays market. But you will still need the third. What this means is that you will have to:
1. Make sure you have two DVI out ports on the computer.
> If it does then go to step 3.
2. Buy a video card that has at least two DVI out ports, ANY Nvidia card will do this.
> got to step 4
3. Buy a Video card that has at least one DVI out port. ANY video card brand should do it.
> if onboard video goto step 5
4. Which monitor is what? Hehehe
Okay the primary card slot typically the one closest to the CPU socket (Blue in color) Is you primary slot. Now the bottom DVI port (the one closest to the bottom of the pc case) is the primary video port. This is the one you hook the main monitor up to.
5. Your onboard DVI port will be the main video out and the one you should hook your primary monitor to.
6. Right click on desktop
select properties
select settings
7. Adjust your three monitors and configure your task bar.
