no dvi, just the 15 pin vga input
Answer #3
I don’t think you will get 1080p with that. The VGA will limit it quite a lot.

yes
you will need dvi to use it for quality 1080p, vga to hdmi will be basic quality like on your monitor now with a tiny touch difference.

The only thing that will limit resolution from a PC to a 1080p monitor/TV will be the video card. VGA/HDMI/DVI will all display 1080p just fine.

Answer #7
VGA is analog and HDMI is digital
so a VGA to HDMI cable may or may not work depending if your VGA connector has digital output
most VGA connectors DON’T have digital output

Answer #9
this is the product from ebay
if it will work depends on your VGA output not the cable it’s self
try googling “vga to hdmi <your PC/lappy model here>”
and see if anyone else is using a cable like that with the same PC/lappy you have
