Manual s : dvi2vgae. FAQs Compliance and safety. Product Support. Frequently Asked Questions Installation Does this device require me to install drivers, or perform any other setup tasks? Yes No. Everything is hooked up but nothing is working. What should I do? You can test to make sure that the following components are working correctly and are not the source of the issue: Video cables Video adapter Video source such as a DVD player or computer Video destination such as a monitor or projector To test your setup components, try the following: Use the cable, video adapter, video source, and video destination in another setup to see if the problem is with the components or the setup.
When you test your cables, it is recommended that you do the following: Test each cable individually. Use short cables when you are testing. When you test the video source and video destination, it is recommended that you do the following: Remove the video adapter from your setup and test to make sure that the video source and video destination work together without the video adapter.
The monitor is not getting a signal and there is no error on the monitor. What do I do? Check that the cables between the source and the destination work with other equipment. Check whether the video adapter works with another source and another destination. Does this device also convert in the opposite direction? Is this an active or passive converter and what is the difference? This is an active video signal converter.

Yes - 2 No - 8 Report. Barry W. Hi, We're curious about the issue your having and would like to get more detail from you. However, there are still situations where you need to change the display technologies; usually due to differing ports on a computer and display. There's also the much less common scenario where a GPU on an older computer needs to send its signal to a newer display device with no VGA connector.
If you find yourself in this situation, we recommend upgrading your video card or buying a new computer. Let us know what you have to say:.

A DVI-D connector, as shown in your images above, has no analogue pins. Active conversion is required in order to convert analogue signals to digital and visa versa.

I borrowed a converter from my office to try it out. It worked. Not sure if it's an active adapter or a passive one. Is it possible to tell just by looking at it? As per the Wiki article on DVI:. This adapter will not work with a DVI-D output. They're both available in a variety of qualities. An advantage of using DisplayPort to VGA could possibly a simpler adapter as there supposedly is some form of backwards compatibility available. At one point I read that there was actual electrical compatibility as the adapter indicates to the card that a VGA display is attached but I'm not able to remember where I read it.
Hence I might be remembering it wrong or it might simply be false. Your video card reflects that and has no ports that can be "passively" converted into VGA. Looking at your ports, that's a purely DVI-D port. It won't work. More accurately, the adaptor won't fit, and the analogue pins don't exist. So if your graphics card doesn't support analog pins on the DVI connector which it doesn't, it's a double link DVI port according to the specs , and in your picture it's missing the analog pins if you compare with the pinout on Wikipedia , then there's no way to convert it to VGA directly with a cable adapter.
So use on of those, buy a different graphics card or use your old graphics card in addition to the new one, or buy a new monitor. The main differences are that DVI has the optional analog pins, and HDMI provides for a copy-protection scheme HDCP that's necessary for some consumer electronics, but not an issue between computer and monitor.
I can't speak for "most" adapters, but the one I'm coming to you through right now works perfectly. Sign up to join this community. The best answers are voted up and rise to the top.
