Hi, again, guys -

Here are the monitors I have now:

And here is the back of my computer

https://pbase.com/tinamanley/image/171832104

What do I have??  Are some of those empty slots on the back of the computer
for a monitor?  What kind of adapter will I need?  The one I ordered (in
the monitor photo) does not work.

TIA for any help.

We are going this morning to look at a puppy (our beloved Jasmine died) but
I'll be back to work on this after lunch.

Tina
