Except on a few rare configurations, and depending on what your BIOS settings allow, you can't use both the motherboard and GPU video outputs. Go into the BIOS and see if you have an option for using both PCI and the iGPU on your processor.

Actually, looking at the BIOS options in the manual for your motherboard, I don't see a dual graphics option so if your graphics settings in the BIOS are set to auto and there is no output to the other video out ports, it's likely that the feature isn't possible on your board and you'll need to use the other ports on your GPU.

Try enabling CPU Graphics Multi-Monitor in BIOS

I saw that setting as well, but reading it, it didn't seem related. It's worth trying though. It's on the Advanced tab under system agent configuration.
