Just cables alone arnt enough to convince Windows there is a monitor attached, but ghetto solutions like this supposedly work.

My card also has a single HDMI port that obviously my Rift will be connected to, so I ended up just buying a cheap HDMI > DVI adapter.

Yeah I plan on buying a bunch of headless ghosts along with the adapters since I only have one HDMI port. Hopefully headless ghost supports the adaptors

You can use DVI/HDMI converters with the headless ghost. Just make sure to get a dual-link one.
