Hello,
I'm looking to hook up a second monitor to this computer. I originally had a second monitor connected through an HDMI cable, but that monitor no longer works. I have since looked for a used monitor with HDMI output, but they seemed to be quite rare and settled for a VGA.
Anyway, since the current VGA slot is taken with my first monitor, I'm looking to use an adapter that will allow a VGA monitor to connect to a HDMI port. I've seen several adapters online for this, but they range from around $30-$50. However, I came across this one on eBay at a much lower price. In addition, the feedback looks excellent. Am I missing something? Or would this work in attaching a second monitor?
Thanks!
