Title: DVI to VGA? I need extreme help!
Post by: Crowley on October 28, 2005, 11:44:19 pm

I'm trying to hook up two monitors with each other, and I have a dual head graphics card but i need to make a dvi to vga adapter. Anyone have any specs or ideas how I can make one and NOT buy one? ;D

Look in the video card box.  I bet its still in it.  ;)  They almost all come with one.

Yeah they come with any good video card.  I wanted to use mine like 20 mintues ago but on the side where its got the flat bar, theres 4 spikes around it that arent on my TV's connector so that doesnt quite work...

GOOD LUCK making one, itll cost you more than just buying a little converter off ebay...

Ya my dad lost the adapter that came with it. I think I might just have to buy one.
