Will this allow me to use an older dvi-d monitor with a new vga port on tower?

If I understand the question correctly, I do not know for sure if it will work. I connected a VGA monitor to a newer dvi-d port and it worked great! The first thing to confirm would be the connections (male vs female)

No, this item takes DVI-D output (not a monitor, a graphics controller/card) and allows an analog (e.g. VGA) monitor to display what's coming out of the DVI-D port. Your question is confusing because DVI-D is newer than VGA, not older.

Haven't tried that, but as DVI-D is pure digital and VGA is pure analog you might need a converter as well. If my computer only had VGA I would consider getting a new one. Dell has decent desktop PCs for $400 or so.

Your workstation is listed as having two DisplayPort and one VGA video outputs. Did it not come with this adapter? If not, it then depends on the inputs on your monitor. If it will accept DP, DVI, or VGA then you have options. You can either get a DP cable, VGA cable, or this adapter and use a DVI cable. That's why I had to get the adapters, because the monitors I was using would only take DVI or VGA input and I wanted to connect to them using the DVI port. Hope this helps.

i have 2 monitors hooked up - 1 through standard VGA and 1 through a DVI -> HDMI connector (the computer has an HDMI port). but they are old monitors, and it took a bit of doing to find the correct windows drivers. but it is doable.

Hello, I have hp pavilion , you should be able to use your VGA cable as I didn't have to buy another cable. Just use cable that comes with monitor.

Are you asking about vga? My aoc monitor calls the vga d sub. No but you can convert the display port to vga

Yes. I'm running two monitors with this card - one with the DVI slot and a second with the VGA port. Both work fine.

The unit supports dual link Dvi which means only a DVI connector will mate. You can use a converter however to go from dvi to VGA. But if you do not have a need for a dual link Dvi, you can get a different model that supports normal single link dvi. My 2556 Dell monitor needed the dual link, but I also needed a high res grhics card as well.

This desktop has a vga and a hdmi port. Since both are on an integrated video card I believed it will not run dual monitors its and either or situation

You cannot use the cheap passive adapters for DVI to vga because the card has only DVI-I outputs. The expensive active adapters are required.

it depends on your system. The tower USB port would be a definite. Whether or not you can plug it into your monitor depends on the monitor. I would suggest looking at your monitor's manual or spec sheet, it should be easy to find the manual online at the manufacturers site.

The back of the tower has one hdmi port, and one vga port. I hooked up dual monitors (both the same) using an hdmi to vga adapter. I suppose you can hook up anything as long as you can find an adapter to make the second port work.

The computer does have both VGA and HDMI ports but not sure whether both monitirs can be used simultaneously.

If you have a Display Port to DVI adapter then yes, you can. Otherwise you'll need to order one.

Only if you have the DMS-59 connector, its Wider by 1/4 of an inch then DVI. If you have a DVI then NO!. You will need another splitter for DVI to 2x VGA. see

No, this card has 2 DVI, 1 HDMI and 1 Display Port, this one doesn't have a vga port.

It should be fine as your BIOS (mine is older than yours) probably allows both on-board VGA and a graphic card on the system. I set auto VGA mode in my BIOS and set the graphic card as the primary VGA in Windows display setting. I use 3 monitors: one from on-board VGA (VGA port) and two from the VGA card (DVI and HDMI). So the monitor connected to the on-board VGA will start first, but the primary monitor connected to my VGA card will be switched to prompt for a login window.
