Running 2 monitors? Need help ASAP

Is it possible to run 2 monitors with onboard graphics?

I have this MOBO, it has VGA and DVI port on the back. Would i need to buy a graphics card to run 2 monitors?

How do i set it up so it does it? i get a BSOD

Wait, did u mean i needed to get a graphics card? orrrrr will it work with onboard?

The onboard,

As far as I read Intels specs, you can just plug them into the board, and be good. I've not used h61 boards so, someone else gonna have to help.

You have he proper drivers

All you have to do is plug 1 monitor into the DVI port, and the other into the HDMI port. Simple & east

Atm I am using dual monitor setup. In order to use two monitors you need to have a VGA and a DVI port in the PC (I have a graphics card with both on it). Then you go to desktop properties, click Settings, then check extend to other monitor. Then badabing badaboom.....It works. Make sure you have the most updated drivers as well.
