I have a new laptop with only an HDMI port that I want to connect to an older LCD projector, that doesn't have an HDMI port. Will this cable work?

No for the research that I have done in these connection it won't work because HDMI is the new age of digital transfer. So because it the new digital transporter you'll need an converter to transfer picture between the two connection. You best bet is to buy an adapter for one of the connection. But I honestly think this cord is fake and would work anyways. Just my thought.

From my experience from my application of this cable, I wouldn't trust it. Try looking for a converter box. It will cost more, but I'm more then positive it will work for what you need.

This cable works well for my Toshiba (4 years old) and ThinkPad (2 years old) laptops with VGA port to connect to HDMI TV - Sharp 60". You can use TV as a big monitor.

It will Not Im not sure of the actual use of this cable but you cannot go from digital to analog connections without some sort of adapter.

I just got my converter today and it is not working! I have an ASUS laptop with HDMI out and I am trying to connect it to my older VGA monitor.

No, you need something that will connect to a video out on the laptop (VGA, dvi, HDMI) and convert that to display port.

This is a USB to HDMI adaptor and I have a windows 7 laptop. I am not sure if your laptop has an HDMI port. I bought this device for my projector and laptop use. It works fine for me.

Yes, that is the way I am presently using it. Of course you must have a VGA output on your laptop and a VGA input on your projector. Also, set your video card in your laptop to VGA output.

to hook it up to a projector it fits nicely, but this item I bought for my Apple TV because it needs hdmi. So I am using my Apple TV to stream everything and show it through my LCD projector. You would only connect this to your laptop through the hdmi port and then connecting the VGA cord from the projector to the adapter

There is a VGA port and USB ports on the laptop. It depends on what type of connector the projector has to determine if you can hook it up to the laptop.

This cable only works from display port to hdmi in. I tried to use it with my xbox360 hdmi out to display port on my monitor and it didn't work. It worked fine from the display port out on my laptop to my hdmi port on my TV.

Yes, you'll just need to connect your HDMI cable to the adapter then plug the adapter into your projector's DVI port. I'm using one for a similar set up.

You'll have to look at the old one first then order the model that's in your laptop. some models have different cables that connect differently requiring a specific lcd.

Im not sure. I wanted to use the cable to hook my laptop (with vga plug) to my tv with an hdmi plug. I want to use my tv as a projector. I cant get it to work with this cable. Although the description says vga to hdmi.

No, you should not buy this adapter. This adapter is for connecting to Ethernet port. It depends on your projector but you should buy either VGA, HDMI or DVI adapter.

I do NOT have that video card, but this cable converts HDMI output to VGA. On my laptop (setup at 1920*1080) resolution this cable did NOT work to an InFocus analog only projector. When I lowered the laptop resolution to 1600*900, the cable worked fine. Eventually, I switched to a different projector at the school that accepted HDMI at 1920*1080.

No, just get a USB to HDMI adapter or if your laptop has HDMI you can go that route as well, some have big or mini HDMI so just look up you model and see what connections you have. This should help you!

Yes. You will attach the VGA to the laptop VGA port then attach the HDMI to one of the TV HDMI ports, make sure both are off then turn the TV on first then , the laptop. Use the projector settings on the laptop etc.

Depends on which connections you have on your laptop. It looks like that projector only supports VGA, so you will need a VGA cable (Male-Male). If you do not have a VGA connection on your laptop, then you will need an adaptor to convert the signal from either HDMI or displayport to VGA.
