DVI-I is the combination port that carries an analog signal, which allows you to use a DVI->VGA adapter. It of course carries the standard DVI digital signal, so of course it works. The only time you have to worry about whether or not a DVI cable will be appropriate for a port is if your display requires a Dual Link connection in order to reach its advertised resolution/refresh rate.
