Product: HP pavilion model p7 1587c
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 8.1 (32-bit)
I am connecting new LG Monitor to HP pavilion and this is old version n has no USB n my monitor is has only USB. So I end up getting VGA adapter so now computer is connected with VGA to USB but it’s not working. Do I need to connect DVI as well? N I have no adapter for this. But all You tube video I watched is connecting straight from VGA computer to Monitor. Can anyone tell me is this new monitor can be connected some how?
