A unique situation... HELP ME.

[QuitePurple]

I have very important things to do...

My situation: I have a fully functioning PC and Monitor. I do NOT have a VGA or DVI cable. I need to connect my PC to my monitor.

Could I break open the vga to dvi adapter I have? It's about 2-3 inches long, maybe more, maybe less. Could I extend the port on my monitor somehow? Thanks for any help!

You need a cable. Go buy one.

You need a cable. Go buy one.

Sadly, that's not really an option at the moment. I probably will tomorrow, but all the stores are closed right now, and I NEED to get some stuff done for work.

Any other ideas? Anyone?

Any rigging you attempt to do is unlikely to work, mostly because if you don't have a DVI or VGA cable I also assume that you don't have a soldering iron and about 100 feet of wire necessary to make a VGA cable.

Seriously, don't be dumb, do it right or don't bother doing it at all.

order the cable online with same day or next day delivery.

*Could* you do this? Maybe.
Could you also smoke the PC and/or monitor? Likely.

Have you ever done anything similar before? Do you have the tools? Do you have the relevant wires laying around?

I smell smoke....

Well aren't you just super important and special. Okay all the Techies lets wave our magic wand and make this happen, because more than anyone else posting on this site, this OP has "very important things to do" and we can't be wasting his time with things like REALITY.

Get over yourself, get the dang cable and stop being so selfishly stupid.
