- How to connect HDMI PC to a VGA Monitor using 1080P HDMI to VGA Converter.
If you have a new Desktop PC or Laptop it is unlikely to have a VGA Monitor output port and will only have an HDMI Monitor output port.
Don't get rid of your VGA Monitor as there is a simple solution to connect HDMI to a VGA Monitor. VGA monitors are Full HD (1920x1080) so are still useable so don't ditch your VGA old Monitor . In this video I will show you how to connect your PC or Laptop to a VGA Monitor using an HDMI to VGA adapter (1080p HDMI to VGA Converter \ HDMI to VGA cable).

Very helpful video, it should also be mentioned to anyone wondering that such an adapter is better for CRTs than cheap HDMI straight to VGA cords, since adapters like these fully convert the digital err, wibbly wobbly computer words into analog ones that the CRT can properly read
From my experience, these things don't tend to last very long, but I guess I'm the foolish one for still using a vga monitor in 2022 with a vertical dead pixel🤣🤣
Mines still ok.
How long do they last?
Mines still going ok
@@LurgsHowToGuides are they okay still?
@@KifPH Mine is ok and had it 3 years+
Thank you so much for this video I bought a regular vga to hdmi that didnt work now I now a convertor is what is require to make this happen thank you again
Glad to help.😎
Very informative and straight to it nice video 👏
Thank you 😎
VGA and DVI is way more comfortable to the eyes than modern stuff too!!
True
that sound from you saying aaahhhhh....damn....you naughty boy...
Can't beat a nice cup of tea. Aaaahhh
I've had one of these adapters for a couple of years on an old 24' Samsung and it still works. but I've always wondered, how much video lag does these adapters introduce (especially in game can be a problem)?
I don't play fast frame rate games but I should imagine you do get a bit of lag.
i have a hdmi cable and hdmi to vga connector with female hdmi and male vga..i want to connect my hdmi laptop to vga monitor...but it does not work..please help
Not sure I’m afraid. If it’s all plugged in correctly you may have a button on your Laptop to switch screen to external source
I am trying to connect my PC to my TV. I’ve got the adapter which is the VGA two HDMI but when I plug it in it won’t display on the TV can you help me please
Use the same cable to plug into your PC Monitor, does that work? If so maybe it's your TV
I have vga monitor and bought rx 6700 that have hdmi so can i use this converter to these 2 things reply fast please
I don’t know, the shop should have advised. Worth a try
@@LurgsHowToGuides ok thank you bro
@@sahgaming6600 Bro iam also trying to upgrade my GPU
But my monitor only has vga port. Did it work for you by using convertor? Please reply
Hi My pc only has VGA. But my new monitor has both. I bought a VGA/HDMI splitter.
Can this work with both PC and monitor with both female inputs? It's not working for me... my splitter VGA end is in the PC. The other end HDMI is in my monitor. Still nothing!
I wonder if I need female VGA for both?
I don't think a splitter will work, you need a VGA to HDMI adapter\converter
@@LurgsHowToGuides
The Adapter is what I have.
Since there's 2 options on my new Onn monitor. Using the VGA side for my pc and the HDMI side for my monitor. Am I confusing my computer?
What if I buy a VGA to VGA cable? Or am i overthinking this. It's a old Windows Intel.
with a brand new monitor. 🤔
@@gutterwailrecords7343 Easiest solution is straight VGA to VGA from PC to Monitor.
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thanks
if you have any solution ? please let me know. this is easy way your are shwoing on video but i faced i big issue with my acer. problem was desktop have hdmi and monitor have vga port i tried a lot to connection like you. but no any resposne on monitor even i tried with new monitor?
Strange. Maybe the port is not working on your Desktop, has it ever worked?
How would you get sound though, since VGA only carries picture?
I’ve got speakers plugged directly into back of PC. It’s rare to have a PC monitor with built in speakers
Mine does this, but i noticed some flickering as well on the monitor. Why is that?
Not sure, is it plugged in ok. I’ve had mine since I made this video and not had any issues at all.
Yey Thankyou I need one of those adaptors
Yeh not had any issues with mine, it’s still going
Sir I am trying to upgrade the graphics card of my CPU. For that my monitor needs hdmi port to connect with hdmi port of GPU. But my monitor only possess vga port. Is it okay to use a convertor? Will it work as fine? Will I have to face any kind of issues?
I honestly don’t know I’m afraid. This adapter \ converter works perfectly but some comments from people say they’ve had problems.
thank you! im going to buy an adapter now
Make sure is HDMI to VGA not VGA to HDMI
@@MHG796 i already got it but my monitor is zoomed in
@@lazvaz type in google "how to change resolution in [your operation system]"
Same thanks
I have a beamer with a VGA input and connected this with a HDMI/VGA converter (with and without an extra power supply ) to my laptop but the only thing I see projected are some coloured small lines. I have tried some different VGA cables (with and without distortion filters) but nothing changes. Do these converters only work for monitors ?
Not sure I’m afraid. Hope you can get it sorted
Will this work the opposite way? As in a monitor with a HDMI port but the PC only has VGA.
I guess, but you’d need a VGA to Hdmi adapter instead
@@LurgsHowToGuides Thank you 😊
@@LurgsHowToGuidesI think I get the new idea. Connect the hdmi to the monitor and then connect the VGA to the PC that only accepts VGA.
Thanks for this info but now my mother is not allowing to buy the😢😢 moniter😢😅😅
Oh dear.
Well it saves your Mother some money. 💰
I have an LG non smart TV. I'm trying to connect it with my laptop. My laptop has a VGA port and the TV has an HDMI port. So I connected using a VGA to HDMI cable. It shows on my laptop now that I have 2 displays, but my TV still shows no signal. Please help😢
Not sure. Try this video, you may have to force the Laptop to switch display

I can connect from vga motherboard to hdmi monitor? I need only video without audio.
Not sure I’m afraid. Sounds ok
I have both VGS and DVI-i outlets on my monitor, which of the two converters too HDMI work the best and easiest, i tryed tye VGA HDMI comverter it doesn't worl fore so imma gonna try next the DVI-I
Not sure I’m afraid.
Good luck
hellooo, i have a question, so i bought a monitor that only utilizes HDMI but my motherboard only supports VGA. So i bought a converter where the VGA will be connected to the converter then the converter to the monitor. However, when i turn on my monitor HDMI 2 No Signal appears, is the problem on the converter??
It must be, are all the plugs in nice and tight?
@@LurgsHowToGuides it is, the monitor logo appears but then no signal appears after
@@riyuu8248 Have you got the correct converter? It’s not a splitter adapter? You just need a basic VGA to HDMI converter adapter. Not heard of anyone having issues with them
@@LurgsHowToGuides i think i got an HDMI to VGA, is the one i need the VGA male and HDMI female??
@@riyuu8248 HDMI is standard they are all the same, there is no male female. You need a converter like in this video
Is it okay with graphics card ??? Will be the speed of gpu same??? Plzzz reply
No idea I’m afraid. Worth a go the adaptor is fairly cheap compared to a new monitor
Try to do it with a PC that only uses vga and connect it to a minitor has accepts hdmi and vga.
does this change have better graphics as well or is it only so you can connect it? I myself have still a VGA monitor and VGA/hdmi computer but i use the HDMI for my other monitor, but does it looks smoother or same performance but i can use it on a newer GPU?
It's just a connection, nothing will change, it's just a 1080P signal that's all.
@@LurgsHowToGuides thx
I have the opposite problem I have a vga only desktop and a hdmi only modem, I bought the cable and it still won’t display
Oh dear, sorry to hear that.
I have the same issue. Did you figure this out? I assuming this only works for as a HDMI to VGA.
@@williammerrill73 my issue was that my monitor settings are too high for a vga cord soon as I ordered a digital port it worked perfect
I have a HDMI to vga cable, does that work fine?
Not sure, worth a try
@@LurgsHowToGuides I tried it and it didn't work actually, I'll have to get a VGA adapter.
Yeh, hope it works ok, it should do
@@LurgsHowToGuides It didn't.....
Hii i have samsung monitor which has HDMI port and my Cpu has VGA port what should i do?
Not sure. I guess you can get a VGA to HDMI converter but you’d have to research it
I did as shown, but I am receiving an "Out of Range" error on the monitor. It will only work with "only show on screen 2" selection in display settings which defeats the purpose of the dual monitors. I have a Dell laptop, Westinghouse 22 inch monitor, and ONN adapter. Please advise.
No idea this video is just for one monitor HDMI PC to VGA. Whatever you are using it should work, probably just need the right adapter. Hope you can get it sorted

Does it work with a graphic card
I would assume so yes but I'm not sure. Mine was only £3-£4 so worth a try
the problem i have is there lines that flicker in dark areas
Make sure the cable is in nice and tight. Not sure why it flickers, could be a frame rate issue between PC & the Monitor
I have RTX 2060 with 1 HDMI connector and my LG monitor is pretty old with vga port
Will this method work?
Does this have any issues while gaming?
Not sure. Not had any problems with mine
May be bro,i connect my old 720p monitor with my gtx 1060 graffic card using hdmi cable now its has restart error then i delete my graffic drivers its works fine when install again my system is restarting 😢
I have an adapter dvi-i to vga if i get an hdmi to vga adapter could i notice a better graphic and better colors or no ?
If the DVI-I to VGA is showing HD 1920x1080 then I don't think an HDMI to VGA would make any difference. But if it's not showing HD then yes it should be better if your VGA is HD
is there any lose on peformens ???? because i bought a new card wich is hdmi and my monitor is vga ....if i buy this adapter i will lose any peformens or not ???? thank you (my english is so bad)
No there shouldn’t be, I’ve not noticed any difference
Hello I have similar setup with yours HDMI to VGA using adapter but it doesnt work in my pc and still shows no signal on my monitor. However, I've tried using the monitor and adapter to my laptop and it works perfectly fine. How to do I fix my pc still not showing any signal despite of having hdmi to vga adaptor? Thanks!
How odd. Not sure I'm afraid, I've had no problems with mine. Double check connections.
My laptop screen is bust and the graphic drivers need updating. It won't connect hdmi to hdmi from my laptop to tv (because no graphic drivers) will this work if hdmi converts to VGA then plugs into the VGA socket on the TV?
Very unlikely as graphic drivers drive the picture so won’t make any difference. Not sure how you will get round that
I have a dell optiplex 990 with a vga output. Can I use the vga to hdmi converter on a 1080p monitor with a hmdi output?
In theory yes but unfortunately you won’t know until you try it.
i have an old LG monitor that has only VGA cable mode, so can i just use hdmit converter for modern graphic card that has only hdmi port?
Yes in theory the same as this adapter. Worth a try
i need to do the reverse. i only have vga out, but i need to go to 2 hmdi monitors. one 25m away and one 10m away. I was hoping a vga to hdmi from amazone plus a splitter so i get 2 hdmi out would work. Could you offer any insight please?
25 metres? Blimey that is a seriously long way for a signal. Not sure I’m afraid
@@LurgsHowToGuides yeah i know :( monitor is about 20m away but cabel gotta go up and back down the extra 5
I got a new Pc with a gpu that has no Vga Port and my monitor doesnt have the hdmi Port so I am confused Right now i need help asap!
That's what this video is for, helps you connect an HDMI PC to an old VGA monitor. If you are unsure then unfortunately you will need a new HDMI Monitor. Good luck.
Should this work with a console such as an Xbox? Also thank you for this video!
Probably yes but you won’t really know till you try it
Thnx man😌❤️
No problem. Glad to help.😎
My doesn't work at all can't turn the monitor up when I put back old desktop it work fine
hi i was wondering if this also works with a usb to vga cable for a pc with hdmi
Not sure I’m afraid.
how about for iphone or smart phone?

no bios show when i am using hdmi to vga converter desktop pc
Not sure I’m afraid
I just bought a new Dell tower that has HDMI and I have an old monitor should I bother to buy the connector or just purchase a new monitor? And will my roughly three to four year old printer work with the new windows 11 Tower? Or should I think of buying a new printer LOL
Not sure I’m afraid. An adapter is way cheaper than a new monitor. Must be worth a try. Printer you will have to see, be very annoying if it doesn’t work. I think it’s terrible old tech stops working, so bad for the environment
Does audio work as well?
Good question, I assume it does yes as hdmi outputs audio but unfortunately my monitor doesn't have any speakers, I use separate speakers on the audio out.
Ah, thank you.
I dont have a 1080p monitor will it work?
Not sure, I think it will only work if your PC display settings are set to the same resolution as the monitor can deal with but I’m only guessing
Sir, iam trying to mirror my laptop screen with a external monitor and i also have a hdmi to vga adapter and after i plugged everything correctly my laptop screen is still not sharing with my external monitor.
Any suggestions?
Sometimes you have to force the screen share, is there a button on your Laptop to press, maybe one of the function keys?
Cool show. I am also a CZcamsr I make music and poetry. I needed this info thank you.
Nice one. Glad it helped 😎
Hello, my monitor has both VGA and DVI input but Pc has just DVI just don’t know how to contact them please help???
Just get a DVI lead which you can plug into PC & the Monitor.
does it have any delay?
I’ve not ever noticed a delay but then I don’t use it for high end gaming. But it’s been great for general use, not had any issues it’s still working!
before convertor 1280 after convertor 1920 is it true ?
I doubt it.
I am also using same like this vedio but my monitor showing blurred screen not giving original picture quality how to fix this sir
Try plugging all the plugs back in again as one could be loose. Else it could be a faulty adapter. Mine has been good as gold, no issues.
Why are you describing where the power cord s? Such an unnecessary bit.
too bad it doesnt work....
Thats coffee tho
