Still haven't told me your iMac's screen size?

Does the second monitor show any of the desktop?

Here is the procedure for getting the second monitor to work.

If the second monitor still isn't working, it maybe that the monitor is too big and the video card cannot drive a second monitor that large.

On my 2009 iMac, for example, with the 256 VRAM card I have installed, I can only run a additonal monitor that is within 20-24 inches in size with a resolution less than what is on my main iMac screen.


If this is a new iMac and you knew that you might want to run a monitor of this size Apple had a build to order GPU option of a 1 or 2 GB VRAM graphics engine, but I think this might only be available on the 27 inch models only.


As far as RAM goes, you do not have nearly enough RAM to run both OS X and other applications efficiently and smoothly.

OS X, by itself, needs a real world working amount of 3-4 GBs of RAM to do it stuff. It simply isn't enough for running the OS and any other applications.

Your iMac can take up to 32 GBs of RAM.

I recommend, at least, installing 8 GBs of RAM and maybe consider installing 12 or 16 GBs of RAM.

If you are using any apps that are really CPU, GPU or RAm intensive 8 to 12 GBs of RAM should be fine.

RAM is pretty cheap for these machines.

You can get reliable RAM from online sources Crucial memory or OWC.

Both sites have a method for helping you determine the specs of the RAM you need to use in your iMac.
