Can I make 2 digital displays (HDMI or Displayport) work on my Travelmate P648-M

Is it possible to make 2 digital displays work on my Travelmate P648-M? I can get 1 digital (HDMI or Displayport) and 1 analog (VGA or DVI) display to work at the same time. How ever I cannot get 2 digital displays to work at the same time. I have also had not luck in using the USB-C port as a display port.

    You could use a display link dongle to do that :) converts a standard usb to shuttle video, they can be quite pricy though

    As Leostat says you can get a second using a USB dock, but those docks are a little pricey, why do you want digital rather than analog? The USB-C port is first gen and doesn't support the DP over USB-C mode.

    Thanks for the suggestions! I am currently using VGA displaylink dongle thing at the moment because my new screen only has display ports. Would a USB displaylink dongle provide better quality display because the VGA version is noticeably worse.
    Is this a hardware limitation or would it be possible to find another driver that might work?

    Tis a hardware limitation I'm afraid. Quality wise it's hard to say, if the image feels a bit fuzzy it could be the conversion and a new adapter may help but it's hard to say!
