Hi Ben, I just tried mine with 2 external monitors, DP->DVI + VGA and internal LVDS still on, I can't get all three to power up, or even 2 without LVDS. :( I'm not sure if this is a restriction of the hardware or if it's the dongle, can someone please confirm if they have 2 monitors working with X200?
