How to connect a monitor to a laptop with a VGA DVI connector?

Question

Iron

Task: I have a laptop with a single VGA connector and I'm going to buy a monitor, the ports of which say the following: "2 DVI-I connectors (dual VGA analog or dual digital input possible)" Will a regular DVI-VGA adapter work for me to pair them? For example, this one - www.ulmart.ru/goods/275663/
I was confused by the fact that in stores they told me the following - “Oh, you have a DVI video output, and a VGA monitor? Hold the adapter! ”, I answer, no, on the contrary. To me - “Hm ... But we don’t have such a thing. Somehow they brought it in… But not now.” I myself understand what things - to turn an analog signal from a card into a digital one is fantastic. However, it is indicated that "dual", DVI-I is there. It should work ... And when you called, no one even asked from the side of the store what kind of DVI it was. All in all, I have my doubts. I would be grateful for a hint.

Answer 1

Take the same adapter, but connect it not from the side of the video card, but from the side of the monitor (the cable must be replaced with VGA). I have one of my monitors connected at work.

Answer 2

The one that is on the link will not work, because. for desktops.
VGA side is needed as you said - on the contrary)

Answer 3

“and the laptop has the same VGA as in the laptop” - I don’t understand you positively. On a laptop as in a laptop (dad). By the way, dad. And on the desktop, too, dad. If I take an adapter with a VGA mother, I also have to take a DVI-I cable - otherwise I already have a male-male VGA cable. Are we confusing mom and dad? :) For me, dad is with pins which.

Answer 4

I have an old computer with VGA, a DVI monitor - it plows through an ordinary adapter, recently there was a batch of monitors, I borrowed it :) there is a DVI-VGA cord

Answer 6

In the adapters that come with monitors (small ones) DVI>VGA there is no converter, only wires. Because in the DVI output of the vidyuhi there is both a digital signal and an analog one (look at the pinout )

That's exactly what they (C1-C5) are output to our analog VGA.
So you need to first find out if your TV supports analog input (C1-C5).
If there is (check by throwing wires), then what you have in question (for $ 8) will do.
If not, it’s already much more difficult and there’s probably a solution.

Answer 7

Found.
For everything to work out, you should have:
DVI-A - only analog transmission.
or
DVI-I - analog and digital transmission.
