Good product - too bad I can't use it, my mistake
  
This review is from: StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF) (Personal Computers)
I didn't realize their are three types of DVI connectors: DVI-I, DVI-D and DVI-A. This adapter fits DVI-I ports, which transfer both a digital and an analog signal. I happen to have a docking port with DVI-D, which is digital only, and can not therefore transfer an analog signal. The adapter won't even fit the DVI-D port. And just fo interests, DVI-A is an analog only DVI port - in essence a VGA transfer with a DVI connector - you don't see to many of these.

So, don't make the same mistake I did. Be sure to check that your docking port or video card has a DVI-I connector before buying this adapter. It will have 4 pin holes around a long slender horizontal pin hole at one end of the port. Check Wikipedia for more info on these ports.

Does the job...
  
This review is from: StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF) (Personal Computers)
I used this little device on my Dell to setup dual monitors. I have the Nvidia GeForce 7300 LE that has one VGA and one DVI connector on it. This adapter allowed me to setup a 2nd VGA monitor using the DVI output.

Works just like it should
  
This review is from: StarTech DVI to VGA Cable Adapter, M/F (DVIVGAMF) (Personal Computers)
I've got an old Ti4600 with VGA and DVI out. This adapter allows me to have dual-monitor at home with ease; the adapter currently connects my secondary screen, a Dell 17" LCD.

Might I also recommend UltraMon, a dual-monitor program which performs a whole host of useful dual-monitor features (i.e. individual task bars, widescreen wallpapers, etc.)

I can't really say much but that it works and was here earlier than it was supposed to. 5 Stars

StarTech DVI - VGA Adapter
This adapter connects both analog and digital signals through it. This is more complete than a DVI-D adapter that just connects the digital signals.
by West327

Exactly what I ordered, got here quickly
It is what it says it is... just like its pictured except mine was a different color, but the connections were identical. Appears to be fairly well made.

Your search is over...
IF you need a DVI to VGA adapter, this is it. I recently got a Dell Optiplex 755 Ultra Small Form Factor, and the video connection is DVI.

DVI to VGA Cable adapter.
This item works great and has no damage to it whatsoever. It shipped within time and came pretty fast. Sound quality is fine and having a second monitor is just plaint awesome.
by Aram

Does what an adapter should
This adapter does what any adapter should, and will allow you to connect a VGA monitor to a DVI port. There's not much else to it, it simply does its job well.
by Tim Merritt

Did not work with my motherboard's DVI-I output
I have an Intel DH67GD motherboard which has a DVI-I output. This adapter would not output a signal to a Samsung T240HD monitor.

video card/screen vga/dvi/a dongle/adapter
Hi,

These dongles allow me to run older lcd panels and crt monitors that have only the d-sub vga connectors on my cpu's with newer cards that have dva/dvi bread-board...
by Happy Gene

Not worth it
Due to the price I though I was getting a steal. First it took too long... Over half a month to get it second it doesn't even work you are better off getting it at micro center...
