I tried to get it to work on an older laptop before I went with a newer one with HDMI and I had no luck.

you need to download the projector's driver to your computer, so your laptop can recognize it, I just dont know where to find the driver, i want to know too.

Hi Jennifer. I think it should work just fine. My laptop only has an HDMI port as well and this adapter works great for PowerPoint projectors and monitors. It was a convenient, low cost work around. Good luck!

If the projector has a VGA or DVI input it should work. Works with an HDMI cable but for this you'll need an adapter DVI/HDMI or VGA/HDMI.One thing with this box, the input source and output must be the same VGA to VGA / DVI to DVI. On the output I have both VGA and DVI cables running to the monitor which is set to auto switch works fine.

Yes you should be able to. I use mine to connect a Lenovo notebook with HDMI port to my epson projector VGA cord in my classroom. Works great. Hope this helps.

You should be able to. This projector supports both hdmi and vga Inputs. I've used my laptop with mine and it worked well.

Yes, via HDMI. There is no VGA port. They pretty much don't exist on laptops anymore. Just get a HDMI to VGA converter if your projector/monitor doesn't have HDMI. $9.99 from Amazon Prime.

Hi S. Anderson,Is the signal your monitor accepts digital or analog? The HDMI adapter I purchased works great with my Dell 15, but the projector I use at work is analog based and not digital, so my new HDMI - VGA adapter does not work. Hope this helps! Mark V.

The Optoma specs page mentions this works with all Optoma projectors. Your laptop must also have a vga output in order to plug this adapter in too. Here is the Optoma product specs weblink for this adapter which has the full information on this:http://www.optomausa.com/products/detail/BI-EXTBG03Thanks.

First the cable VGA connection is female...and so is the VGA connection on your laptop . So, to make this cable work, you would need a double male plug between your computer VGA and the cable VGA. I bought the cable to interface between a projector and laptop. When I plugged the VGA cable into my laptop, the audio (out) on my laptop did not have any output? That killed the deal for me as the saying goes...

The projector is hdmi input, so you should be set provided you get the right adapter. I've plugged it directly into a pc, into a Macbook, and (using an RCS to 1/8th" adaptor) to an old NES. All worked great.

What did you plug it into? If it was a laptop you just have to change your settings on your laptop to connect to a projector.

Clay, this device has a chip which enable the conversion from hdmi signal to a vga feature, thus you can conect your laptop with hdmi port to a projector with vga port.Black refers only for the color. No software or additional hardware is necessary

This projector comes with a VGA cable-commonly known as a DE-15. (Go to Wikipedia/VGA Connector for a picture). If your laptop has one of those plugs in the back, you are all set.It also has an HDMI connector, but does not ship with an HDMI cable. (Wikipedia/HDMI for a picture). If you laptop only has an HDMI connector, you will need your own cable.

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.
