Thought it wouldn't hurt for such less price but this product is useless and will not work, you cannot use it to convert digital to analog signal. I am sorry that I bought this even after reading other's review. DO NOT BUY.
Do not buy this adaptor; it does absolutely nothing and I don't understand why it is even manufactured. That type of adaptor costs usually $80-$150. This adaptor does nothing, especially not what it the description says it will do, which is connect a DVI jack to a VGA monitor. In order to do that (and have it work), you would need a converter that converts digital signal to analog. I learned all this the hard way: by buying this adaptor, plugging my VGA monitor cable into the DVI jack on my computer, wondering why it didn't work, then educating myself on what it means to convert a digital signal to analog.
There is a first time for every thing and they got me this time; I should it checked before ordering, but I was in a hurry.You see the pins on that DVI-D side C1 red, C2 Green, C3 Blue C4 Horizontal sync; are missing, the only one present is C5 for Ground. Cheap means trouble, this adaptor is worthless and I don't know why they even made it.I got this adapter from HDE though Amazon of curse, the seller does not indicate that the adapter being sold and shipped is a DVI-D which means digital only. So on the VGA side pins 1, 2, 3, red, green and blue are not connected to any thing.I paid $2.59 plus SH $5.58 not bad for the price, but id had to buy a new video card.
THIS WILL NOT CONVERT ANYTHING, THE ITEM ADVERTISED HERE IS NOT FOR DVI-D TO VGA CONVERSION. DO NOT BUY THIS IF YOU NEED TO CONNECT YOU NEW MAC MINI WITH DVI-D ONLY OUT TO AN OLD VGA ONLY MONITOR OR PROJECTOR OR LCD TV. DO NOT BUY.
a DVI-D to vga adapter. NOT. It does not convert a digital signal to analog. This adapter is NOT. NOT. It will only work with DVI-I connections.
