How to turn on 3 Screens with Windows 8 Laptop?

I have an HP DV6-6C35DX, and I have two monitors connected (HDMI and VGA) and while I can extend the desktop to two of the possible 3 screens (Laptop included) I can not seem to configure it to have it extend to all 3 screens. Is this possible with Windows 8?

Update:

I have an AMD Radeon 6620G

Update 2:

With AMD Vision Engine Control Center, I was not able to create a Eyefinity Display Group with more then 3 monitors at one time. Disappointing, :(

    it depends on what graphics card you have.

    if you have an intel integrated graphics card you can't unless you have HD 4000 o HD 2500 and here instructions on how to if you do have those versions of it.

    http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/CS-031026...

    if you have an nvidia graphics card it must be a gt 640m,gt 650m,gtx 660M,gtx 670MX,gtx 675m,gtx 680m,gtx 685m or an sli of any nvidia graphics cards.this is because only kepler series graphics cards from nvidia can drive 3 displays from a single graphics cards,fermi and prior require an sli of two or more graphics cards for more than two displays.

    if you have an AMD graphics cards supporting eyefinity then you should just be able to do so regularly.

    although windows 8 itself does not limit you to any number of displays,it all depends on your hardware.
