StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF) Reviews
This review is from: StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF) (Personal Computers)
I didn't realize their are three types of DVI connectors: DVI-I, DVI-D and DVI-A. This adapter fits DVI-I ports, which transfer both a digital and an analog signal. I happen to have a docking port with DVI-D, which is digital only, and can not therefore transfer an analog signal. The adapter won't even fit the DVI-D port. And just fo interests, DVI-A is an analog only DVI port - in essence a VGA transfer with a DVI connector - you don't see to many of these.
So, don't make the same mistake I did. Be sure to check that your docking port or video card has a DVI-I connector before buying this adapter. It will have 4 pin holes around a long slender horizontal pin hole at one end of the port. Check Wikipedia for more info on these ports.

I used this little device on my Dell to setup dual monitors. I have the Nvidia GeForce 7300 LE that has one VGA and one DVI connector on it. This adapter allowed me to setup a 2nd VGA monitor using the DVI output.

I've got an old Ti4600 with VGA and DVI out. This adapter allows me to have dual-monitor at home with ease; the adapter currently connects my secondary screen, a Dell 17" LCD.
Might I also recommend UltraMon, a dual-monitor program which performs a whole host of useful dual-monitor features (i.e. individual task bars, widescreen wallpapers, etc.)
