It's two displays coming out of the one graphics card. VGA and DVI.

Yeah, I could install as a VM guest. But then two things.

1. I don't really want to use Windows. I want to use Linux, I'm keeping Windows around so I can occasionally play DayZ with my son.

2. Because I'm interested in Penetration Testing, and one of the courses I want to do in the field (written by the very same people who maintain Kali) involves using virtual machines, I'd then be trying to run a VM inside a VM and I'm told this is not possible.

I could also run a live DVD, but like I say. I want to use it as my main OS. Not an after thought.

Kali is a penetration testing appliance (distro).

Why not just install it as a VM guest on VirtualBox (or one of the many
hypervisors on windows that are free) and set it running while you play
minesweeper (or whatever windows can do these days that is worthwhile).

No dual boot needed.
