HP DisplayPort To VGA Adapter (GPU to Monitor)

Can i use this one, this one or this one to connect non HP components like: Radeon graphic card with DisplayPort and Asus monitor with VGA connector?

Hello coffeecup332,
To get your issue more exposure I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums since the HP Elitebook is a commercial product. You can do this at Notebook - HP ProBook, EliteBook, Compaq, Slate/Tablet PC, Armada, LTE.
I hope this helps!
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums.

  • Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter not waking monitor

    Hi,
    I've had my Mac mini for about a month now (the 2010 model with 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo and 2GB of RAM). Initially I had it connected to a 32" TV via HDMI which worked perfectly. However I have now switched to a 24" Iiyama ProLite E2410HDSD which doesn't have a HDMI socket. I've bought a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter.
    Whenever I put the mini to sleep or switch it off, the display does not come back on. To get it to work, I have to unplug the adapter from the mini and plug it back in again. Is there any way to get it to work all of the time?
    Thanks,
    Thomas
    Edit : Just booted into Windows 7 using Boot Camp, and putting that to sleep and waking it works perfectly!

    I think I know what's wrong, but I don't know of a good way to fix it. The Iiyama is not constructed correctly. It appears that it's DDC channel goes down when it's sleeping, which it shouldn't do, unless it allows auxiliary power on the VGA cable to keep the channel active, which it also seems like it isn't doing.
    Does the Iiyama have a DVI input? That might work better with the correct adapter. Although if they messed up the architecture of the VGA port, they may have messed up DVI, too.

  • Getting a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter & Monitor to Work with an Xserve

    First let me say that I'm very new to Xserve's and OS X Server and any help is greatly appreciated.
    I have an Xserve with a connected Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter and a confirmed working VGA monitor. There is also a keyboard and mouse plugged into the front USB port of the Xserve. The internal SSD has been formatted clean.
    I've been trying to boot up from the optical drive on the Xserve using the 10.6 DVD. I use the front panel/system identifier button to boot up and I make sure enclosure lock is unlocked. Each time I try to boot up, the monitor stays off and the DVD is spit out.
    I eventually got the DVD to stay in, and the screen showed the grey screen with black apple and the spinning black circle on the bottom. However, after a few minutes the screen turned orange in color. Using Screen Sharing, it looked fine. I tried a second VGA monitor, but that still didn't do it.
    So with the DVD still in, I stay connected via Screen Sharing and begin the installation process remotely, thinking Snow Leopard will recognize the monitor eventually. Well, 10.6 is now fully installed, but still no working monitor.
    I then decided to try the Mini DisplayPort to VGA Firmware Update. I download and run the installer, but it tells me, "The Updater could not find a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter to update."
    How can I possibly get this monitor working?
    Thanks in advance.

    Just ran in to this myself -- Nehalem Xserve running 10.6.2 Server with an MiniDisplayPort to VGA adapter connected to an Avocent Switchview 1000 KVM. Took the server offline to install RAM and after rebooting, no video. Oddly enough, the KVM's LEDs showed a display connected but Apple System Profiler showed no adapters connected to the video card. Nothing seemingly worked -- rebooting, shutdown/restart, and/or hot-plugging the adapter made no difference. I also tried a second MiniDisplayPort adapter to no avail.
    Note that the MiniDisplayPort to VGA Firmware update had already been applied to BOTH adapters prior to this issue appearing.
    What restored video output on our system: reboot from the Snow Leopard Server install media, video reappears over the adapter, and after that I can reboot from the SSD boot drive running 10.6.2 Server with video output working over the MiniDisplayPort to VGA adapter.

  • HT3382 With a MacbookAir (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port, can you configure the external monitor to FULLY display in portrait mode yet keep the built-in display in landscape mode?

    With an 11"-inch Macbook Air (mid-2012) using a mini DisplayPort-to-VGA adapter plugged into the Thunderbolt port:
    Can you configure an extended desktop with an external monitor (20") displaying full portrait mode (1200 x 1600 resolution) and keep the built-in display in landscape?
    I'd like to see something like
    External monitor / Built-in display

    Yes, I can't see why not.
    Just give it a try and report back if you have a problem.

  • Apple Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter flickers

    I have 2 Samsung SyncMaster 23 in, HD Displays connected to my Mac Mini. The Display connected via the Mini DP to VGA adapter flickers erratically. This started happening after installing the latest upgrade of OSX Mountain Lion. I called Apple support, they gave me a list of steps to try to fix the problem, which I followed to the letter, to no avail. The problem is annoying, to say the least. I tried to find out if there was a firmware update for the adapter, but I am running the latest firmware (1.03).
    I would appreciate any help to solve this issue.

    Thank you for your message.
    1. Both monitors only have VGA input.
    2. The other adapter, Mini-DVI to VGA has always worked properly.
    3. The Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter is an Apple original product I bought at an Apple store. I bought 2 adapters.
    4. Actually I have 2  Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapters: The one I use with my Mac Mini, and another adapter I use to connect my Mac Book Pro to a Panasonic projector.
    5. I have tried using both adapters, and the flickering problem is present using either adapter.
    6. I believe the flickering problem is definitely something that needs to be addressed and solved by Apple. The adapter is its product, and should work as advertised, no matter what version of OSX I am running. Please remember that there was no flickering before I upgraded to the latest OSX Mountain Lion.
    7. I do not believe buying an adapter from another manufacturer, as you suggest, would solve the problem.
    Thank you for your help.

  • No image on screen using Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter

    Received mini today.  After unboxing, read through the packet.  Then began to hook everything up as directed.  I used a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter to connect the monitor from our now dead desktop to the mini.  After double checking all connections, I hit the power button.  I immediately heard the apple chime. Then the monitor showed the grey apple start up screen.  Suddenly the monitor went black and said it was going into sleep mode.  I can't get it out of sleep mode when connected to the mini.  It is NOT the monitor or the adapter.  I plugged the monitor straight into a netbook and it worked.  Then, I plugged the monitor using the adapter into my MacBook Pro and also got it to work that way.  So I tried replugging the adapter into the mini.  Still can't get an image on the screen.  I can't complete set up or use mini because I can't get an image.  Any suggestions or ideas?  I will call apple in the morning if I can't figure it out tonight.  But I'm hoping someone can give me suggestions.  Thanks for your help!

    I had the same issue when I bought my mac mini last week apart from I wasn't even getting the initial grey screen. I went back to the Apple shop and they gave me another mini and fired it up in the shop using the adaptor on an old VGA monitor. It worked perfectly.
    When I got home I set it all up again and still had the same issue. I nearly threw out a couple of monitors as I thought they were broken.
    However, had a look around the web and found this suggestion:
    Shut down the mac and disconnect the adaptor from it. Now fire the mac up and let it boot up FULLY. Once it has had a chance to boot up fully, only then plug the adaptor in.
    Worked for me and I haven't had the issue since (touch wood). Hope this helps.

  • Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter not working under Vista (Boot Camp).

    Hi there,
    I'm facing a very serious issue with MacBook Pro Unibody running MS Vista under Boot Camp: using the Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter to hook a projector is 95% impossible because the only resolution available is 640x480 or sometimes 800x600. No solution came from the adaptor firmware update, still same behavior: connecting the external projector/monitor toggles 640x480 resolution with no more choices available. Just 5% of attempts on selected projectors gave me access to the complete resolutions list.
    This is having a serious impact on my job where I do need both Mac&Windows running natively and with external display capabilities, please I'm looking for some feedback from users facing the same problem or someone who had an official answer on this issue from Apple. Do avoid posting about using modded display drivers please: I know they exist but the adaptor should be working with original ones.
    I can understand Apple does not support MS Vista issues but this seems to be a hardware/driver one.
    I'd like to point out I'm using a clean Vista installation with Apple drivers (from the Leopard DVD) and I've run Vista (same version, same gfx drivers etc) under Boot Camp on my previous MPB (with integrated DVI output+adapter) on hundreds of different projectors with never a single problem.
    Any feedback is really appreciated.
    L.

    I'm having the same problem. When I try to connect to the switch in our conference room (connecting both a flat panel display and/or a projector, both with much higher native resolutions), all I get is 640x480. This is a huge problem to using bootcamp, and I really need to get this to work. I was able to get a higher resolution 1280x800 on a separate, portable display, so I'm wondering if people have the problem with standalone projectors or only with projectors connected to some sort of switch, in my case an Extron MPX423A. I have also tried this in both Windows Vista (32-bit) and Windows 7 RC1 (32-bit), with the bootcamp drivers and the latest NVidia drivers, and the behavior is the same all around.

  • Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter won't work on thunderbolt port

    Hello
    I bought 2 new Macbook Pro 13' , 2.9 Ghz Intel Core i7, with 8 Go 1600Mhz DDR3,  Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB, Mac OS X Lion 10.7.4 (11E2617).
    I have connected a Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter in order to show presentations on different LCD projectors but  no image appear.
    The external monitor is detected but no image is shown. I have tried to change the frequencies: parts of the screen appears but no a correct image. I have the same symptoms with the 2 Macbook Pro. Using old Macbook Pro with the same Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter, the slides are showns normally.
    I make a test with a Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter and with a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter and everythings works correctly with both adapters.
    Does anybody has a solution?
    Thank in advance for your help

    By any chance were you using a VGA->DVI adapter when trying to use the Mini-DisplayPort->VGA adapter? As in Mini-DisplayPort->VGA->DVI?
    I had trouble with this. I found going straight to Mini-DisplayPort->VGA or Mini-DisplayPort->DVI worked perfectly but once I added a VGA->DVI or DVI->VGA adapter to the chain the screen would be detected by OS X but the monitor itself would give the "No signal detected" message. I tried all these combinations on the same monitor.
    Not sure if it helps your situation but I have noticed some similar issues.
    EDIT: Oh, and I have the new MacBook Pro 15inch with Retina all fully updated. I noticed that with my late-2009 White Macbook didn't have this issue with the cables and adapters.

  • Will a Mini-Displayport to VGA adapter work with new macbook pro 2011

    I was thinking of getting a mini-displayport to vga adapter for my external monitor I wanted to hook up but I wasnt quite sure whether it would work as my macbook pro has the new thunderbolt port, I was confused if the new port would only work with the thunderbolt displays. Could anyone help me as I'm not too sure what will work.

    I tried the Apple miniDisplayport to VGA in a Thunderbolt MBP and iMac and they both worked. Same for the Apple miniDIsplayport to DVI.

  • Cannot update mini displayport to vga adapter firmware 1.0

    How come i cannot update the firmware,It says "The Updater could not find a Mini DisplayPort to Vga Adapter to update even though the adapter is already connected to my Philips HDTV.At first, the image in my philips hdtv is not clear as my secondary display plus my primary display which is my macbook aluminum has a black portion on the left and right of the screen about an inch wide so i did a little search on the net and it says i need to update the firmware so i downloaded it but i cant update it so im stuck at a crappy ,vivid image or display on my philips hdtv and a small image or display in my macbook everytime my display port is connected.I think my Philips HDTV is compatible with the display port because the image in my macbook can be mirrored but as i said the image is not clear really blurry but i maybe wrong so my second question is how do i know my Philips HDTV is compatible with my macbook as a secondary display?

    1. I don't believe you can have anything hooked up to the adapter. all you need is the adapter plugged in without screen.
    2. how old is the adapter? this update is about a year old, so chances are your adapter has the updated & probably newer firmware installed.
    I got the same error with mine back then as it already had the update when I bought it, even tho I did so BEFORE apple posted the firmware, so units leaving the factory already had the updates.
    I agree with kmac1036, having recently run the update (or rather attempted to). You can't have a monitor connected to the adapter. It's also likely that your adapter is the newer version, even though the software download is being prompted. I had read on some tech blog that said the model # on the newer adapter has a -1 after it to indicate it's the revision with the updated firmware.

  • Does the "Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter" work with all Samsung tv models?

    Does the "Mini DisplayPort to VGA Adapter" work with all Samsung tv models?

    It's a VGA adapter. Nothing special about that. If your Samsung monitor supports VGA then it will work.
    But why not go completely digital and use a Mini DisplayPort to HDMI adapter to skip the analog conversion? It also supports passing audio over HDMI.

  • Does Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter support DDC/CI?

    I have a Mac Pro and a MacBook5,1.
    Mac Pro is attached to a BenQ monitor which supports DDC/CI communication.
    With a capable software I'm able to set brightness and contrast of the monitor without using monitor's OSD (thanks to DDC/CI communication).
    If I attach the same monitor to my MacBook5,1 with VGA cable through a Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter, DDC/CI stops working.
    I'm no more able to set brightness and contrast and the app reports that monitor isn't DDC/CI capable.
    I'm sure its not an issue related to the app that I'm using to set brightness and contrast. It detects correctly both of the monitor (the internal and the external one) and I'm sure that I'm sending DDC/CI commands to the external monitor and not to the internal one.
    So, does Mini DisplayPort to VGA adapter support DDC/CI, and therefore passthrough its signal?
    Or is it a problem of MacBook and its Mini DisplayPort which does not support DDC/CI at all? I don't think so.
    I hope you can help me.

    No. Unlike DVI, which in the DVI-I configuration has both digital and analog pinouts, DisplayPort (and mini-DisplayPort) are purely digital. Mini-DP to DVI then DVI to VGA will not work. If you look carefully at the Apple Mini-DisplayPort to DVI adapter, you'll notice it's a DVI-D connector - digital pins only.
    The Apple mini-DisplayPort to VGA adapter contains a digital-to-analog converter.
    So, you'll have to choose. If you want VGA, get Apple's mini-DisplayPort to VGA adapter.
