I want to have 2 external monitors (same models) hooked up to my Nitro AN515-55-53AG laptop, but nothing I've done has worked. The 1st one hooks up just fine using an hdmi cable into the hdmi port. But then I tried both USB and USB-C to hdmi cables for the second monitor, which isn't working. I tried a usb-c to 2 hdmi converter, but that also did not work. Any help would be appreciated.

This is a hand-me down laptop, so I have it and the manual I downloaded from this site.

    Yes, but what`s the point? You beter get active(with build-in basic gpu chip) usb to hdmi adapter.
    I'm not sure I understand. I thought you said usb to hdmi doesn't work with my model.
    Yes it is not working with simple adapter (which means that the usb on your laptop doesn`t have native video out support) but it will work with DisplayLink adapter.
    Please click "Yes" if I have answered your question.
