Can I do this? If so, how does one set things up?

I have a Quadro K2200 video card plus a built-in Intel HD4000. I would like to run my two 4k monitors on the K2200 and my two HD monitors on the HD4000. Every time I try and plug one of the HD monitors into any of the HD4000 ports the PC won't boot. I get an error message on the HD monitor saying I have an invalid arrangement (I'm paraphrasing) and the 4k monitors don't even turn on.

I can run one of the HD monitors on the DVI port of the K2200, but would rather dedicate this to 4k use.

My PC is a Dell OptiPlex 920 (4th gen i7 with Q87 MB, 24GB of RAM, SSD, PCIe x16 (one full height slot), Windows 8.1.

Thanks.
