Many small businesses rely on presentations to gain new clients. Today, effective presentations include visual aids, often displayed digitally with a projector. Therefore, it is important to avoid potential incompatibilities between the projector or display monitor.
Most computers, monitors, and projectors use one of two main display standards - Video Graphics Array (VGA) or Digital Visual Interface (DVI). While these standards produce comparable quality at small and medium display resolutions, their physical connectors differ markedly. A VGA to DVI converter accepts VGA input and outputs at the DVI standard. Using one of these converters can ensure the a computer will be able to connect to common display devices.
no because dvi is digital while vga is analog. the only way you could get it to work would be to have a converter box that converted the digital signal to analog.
The mini DVI to VGA cord is a converter cable or adapter cable. These types of cables will take input from one type of port and convert it into output which will be sent into the second type of port. In this case it will plug in something with a mini DVI plug into a VGA port.
With a DVI to VGA lead one can link DVI and VGA devices. For example one could link a computer through its DVI output to a monitor with VGA input. One can buy them from Amazon.
You can buy a DVI to VGA adapter.
Depends on if you have a DVI compatible monitor and video card. DVI is considered better than VGA.
You need a DVI-A Male to HD15 VGA Female Video Adapter.
No. HDMI to DVI uses a DVI-D or DVI-I connection and is digital, but a DVI to VGA uses a DVI-I or DVI-A and is analog. The best way to connect a PS3 to a projector is to see if the projector support component video through the VGA input using a VGA to component pigtail adapter. The projector might have even come with one. You then need to purchase a PS3 component video cable. This will allow resolutions up to 1080i (if your projector support it).
You don't really need cables. You should first get a converter or update your graphics card so that it has a DVI output, then use a DVI to HDMI cable.
Well, I would recommend converting VGA format files to DVI format files with VGA format to DVI format file converters that are offered for use for a fee of no charge.
Dvi would be better than vga. DVI was the front runner for HDMI. VGA has been around for quite a while as far as technology goes.
dvi is higher quality
It would be MUCH cheaper to get an HDMI adapter for one of your other ports. For example you might have a DVI or mini-DVI port. Keep in mind though that DVI is video only. If you only have a VGA output, you can get a converter box that can covert VGA output to HDMI, but your laptop likely will not support HD resolutions.
