organ_shifter Posted January 12, 2006 CID Share Posted January 12, 2006 I have one that came with my graphics card. It's the single adapter, but there are cables as well. When using it, the only thing that I didn't like was that my TV Out wouldn't work with it connected. Nothing showed up on the TV until I disconnected it. http://images.google.com/images?hl=en&q=VGA%20to%20DVI&btnG=Google+Search&sa=N&tab=wi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as the VGA side is female, and the DVI side is male, you should be ok. Just to be clear, your monitor has the standard VGA connector while the graphics card has a DVI & VGA option correct?
