    I'm trying to do a dual monitor setup and I need a DVI adapter; however, this Dell's DVI is different than what I am used to, and I can't seem to find an adapter that fits it.... Radio Shack didn't even have the adapter I needed....:eek:

    I will describe the difference: most of the DVI's I've seen will have the one long horizontal lead with two small pins above and below it and then a few more pins to the right of it. Well the one I need has the long horizontal lead without the two above and below it. Is this DVI-I, DVI-A, or DVI-D? Where can I find one?

    Thanks for the help, but that's not quite what I am looking for. I'm looking for a simple VGA to DVI adapter, where the DVI portion matches what I previously said.

    Forgive me for not mentioning sooner, I need the female VGA to male DVI adapter.
