I have just bought this monitor but my computer stack does not have a HDMI connection so I bought a male/female HDMI/VGA adapter to make it possible to connect things up but it doesn’t seem to work. Any suggestions?

From HDMI (digital) to VGA (analog) you need a proper converter. Are you sure the male/female HDMI/VGA adapter does have converter function in between ?
Regards.

Hi,
Most computers have the VGA, DVI and HDMI connection ports with some laptops coming with thunderbolt, USB ports and an HDMI adapter only. So, for example, if your monitor has a VGA connection, and so does your computer, then use a VGA cable to connect the two.
Thanks
