How do you connect 3 monitors on an Optiplex 7010,Dell 7010 has 2 DP ports built in and 1 Vga port
To connect three monitors to a Dell Optiplex 7010, you can use the built-in DisplayPort (DP) ports and the VGA port. Here's how you can set it up:
- Check the available video ports: As you mentioned, the Dell Optiplex 7010 has two DisplayPort (DP) ports and one VGA port. Make sure all three monitors support at least one of these connection types.
- Connect the first monitor: Use a DisplayPort cable to connect the first monitor to one of the DP ports on the Optiplex 7010. Ensure that both ends of the cable are securely plugged in.
- Connect the second monitor: Connect the second monitor to the other DisplayPort (DP) port on the Optiplex 7010, using another DisplayPort cable.
- Connect the third monitor: Since the Optiplex 7010 has only two DP ports, you'll need to use the VGA port for the third monitor. Connect the third monitor to the VGA port using a VGA cable.
- Configure display settings: Once all three monitors are connected, you'll need to configure the display settings to extend the desktop across all monitors. Right-click on the desktop and select "Display settings" (Windows) or "System Preferences" -> "Displays" (macOS). From there, you should be able to set the arrangement and orientation of the displays.
Note: When using multiple monitors, it's important to consider the graphics capabilities of your computer. The Optiplex 7010 might have limitations on the maximum resolution and refresh rate it can support across multiple displays. Check the specifications of your specific Optiplex 7010 model to ensure it can handle three monitors simultaneously.
If you encounter any issues or limitations, you may need to consider using additional hardware, such as a DisplayPort splitter or an external graphics card, to connect and support three monitors.

How do I reinstall Windows 8.1 back on my Dell with a USB and/or a SD memory card?
as win 8 is an operating system , the only way to uninstall it is to reformat the hard drive
If you have been spending time backing up files and folders that will not be a problem and you should go straight to win 10 from a usb stick
try control and delete to get the bios up and type in command c:\chkdsk and see if that runs
that is the inbuilt disc checker that rectifies all files and folder corruptions
otherwise take it to an IT specialist and see what can be done
