Newegg.ca - StarTech 1 ft. VGA to 2x VGA Video Splitter Cable - M/F Model VGASPL1VV Click to expand... This may not be what you are looking for Note: This product will split your video signal to deliver two identical images of the same resolution. It cannot be used to span an image across two displays, or to show different images on each display. Click to expand... You should be able to find a USB to VGA converter if you need to do something beyond the capabilities of the splitter.
