I did not get a VGA cable included with the monitor even though the user guide on the included cd says it should be a part of the package contents. Now I cant connect this monitor to my other laptop.

You can buy a DVI to VGA sex change adapter on the video connect end. They're cheap. You'd be happier with a DVI out vid card. There is some signal loss in the downconvert from the DVI to older VGA. DVI delivers an improved signal to noise ratio that an 'expert' can see in color rendering comparison.

Gigabyte ATI Radeon HD4350 512 MB PCI-Express Video Card GV-R435OC-512I15ft Premium HDMI to DVI CableAfter ordering, I discovered my video card doesn't have hi enough resolution. I have ordered this video card and cable combination. I have a dual core processor 4200 w/2gig mem. so I think it will work. I'm also replacing my dvd burner with a blueray burner, ought to be awesome!

Thanks for responding, I have a Nvdia Geforce 6100 card, Iwill have to check if its compatable. The monitor now is anAcer 22 inch.Good luck with the new burner, sounds neat. Paul.

Every. On it or is comparable with all computers. You either have the same input or output or get an adapter to match. This one has VGA, Display Port and DVI

I think (along with VGA cable) it also comes with DVI cable and HDMI cable.http://us.acer.com/ac/en/US/content/model-datasheet/UM.WH6AA.002http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=9SIA25V0RF2688

I checked the specs on it and it says it comes with a VGA Cord but it seems mine also had a dvi cord. Hopes this helps

Edited answer: Monitor is VGA, no this will not work. HDMI and DVI are both digital signals. VGA is analog. DVI carries additional VGA pins that can be adapted to VGA, but those pins to not exist in a VGA header. You need a specialty adapter or a DVI/HDMI capable monitor for this to work.

Can it connect to a VGA connector, you ask? Why, yes it does--a DVI to VGA adaptor is included. See this page http://hothardware.com/Reviews/NVIDIA-GeForce-GTX-650-Ti-BOOST-Review/?page=2 for the specifics. It only comes with one, so you'll have to go find a second one if you plan to run two VGA style monitors from this hardware.

It should work. The monitor has a VGA (15-pin D-sub) input. Most laptops have a VGA output. I use my E173FP with my Toshiba Satellite and other laptops/desktops/servers on occasion. If the laptop has a DVI or HDMI output instead, there are DVI or HDMI-to-VGA adapters (or cables) available separately from computer/electronics stores.

While all of my current systems (4 laptops) have both VGA and either DVI or HDMI connections (the key reason I purchased this specific switch), I've had some success with different interface converters. The HDMI computer uses a HDMI-DVI adapter cable, and I've used DVI-VGA before with a dual VGA KVM that preceeded this unit. However, you'll need to do careful research on selecting a DVI-VGA converter and on your monitor's DVI signal capability before going this route. Most of the DVI-VGA adapters are converting from DVI-A to VGA, not from DVI-D; DVI-D is the standard output for most DVI ports. Most monitors also only accept the DVI-D input. In order to convert from DVI-D to VGA you'll need to insure that your converter can produce the high-frequency VGA signal required to drive a full HD VGA display. Most do not reach full HD bandwidth, leaving one monitor with a lower-res screen. In my case, using Lenivo T-420 laptops on two of the input pairs, the Lenovo docking platform provides a stable HD VGA output as well as DVI-D ports. This is how I connect both DVI and VGA ports on the KVM. As I said earlier, my choice of this KVM was dictated by the ubiquity of a stable HD VGA port being available on all systems, and DVI-D conversion from HDMI being the only other problem I had to address. The KVM will support DVI-A through-links...if your monitors support DVI-A or you can use a DVI-A to VGA connection, you might look at a switch that is dual DVI (A+D) and just pass the VGA through on the -A pins of the DVI port.

The DVI works fine. The problem is likely your video card and possibly the cable.Read the specs and you will see that it requires a specific kind of DVI (there are four).The cable looks similar but the pin-outs are different.Look for a video card that supports the dual DVI connection.These cards tend to be more expensive, which makes sense as you are pushing a high resolution.You will need a card with at least 2 Gig of memory (prefer DDR5; or min DDR3) or your experience will suffer.Look at an AMD Radeon 7700 series or higher card.If I recall correctly, it requires dual DVI.

looking at the picture I dont see a vga output it has dual dvi and dual hdmi. I believe there is an adapter that goes from dvi to vga like:"StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF)"

Yes, VGA and HDMI. This PC doesn't have a DVI port but you can get cheap HDMI-DVI adapters.

Unless you have some special speakers all computer spekaers and monitors will connect with the new and newer systems... you may have an issue with the monitor as most current systems have dropped the old VGA pin connector in favor a the new DVI/HDMI connections... so worst case you have to buy a cheap converter or invest in a new monitor... your eyes will appreciate that!

I don't think this will work with all computers. I have a 7-yr old Dell with a DVI tmonitor port - even with the DVI to HDMI adapter that came with the computer I'm not getting a signal. Also, so far it is not working with my Acer Chromebook either.

The monitor itself only has 1 VGA and 2 HDMI ports, no DVI ports. It comes with an HDMI to DVI cable so you can plug a DVI device into one of the HDMI ports.

The monitor has VGA and HDMI inputs only. It does NOT have a DVI input. http://www.samsung.com/us/computer/monitors/LS27B350HSZ/ZA-specs

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.

Although the computer itself does not have a DVI connection, you can use a VGA-to-DVI cable or an HDMI-to-DVI cable to connect the computer to the DVI connector on a monitor. I'm using an HDMI-to-DVI cable from Amazon Basics and it works with no problem.
