HP All-in-one 200
Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

Hello all, 

 

I want to help my dad plug in an extra screen on his HP All-in-one computer that only has usb 2.0 ports. 

 

I tried plugging an VGA-2620302437344667815.jpg to a VGA to usb 2.0 port and it does not work. 

 

Thanks! 

 

Valerie

This is a hard problem to solve -- as I was faced with the same issue and had to go through three different USB-to-VGA adapters until I got one that came with its own drivers -- and that one worked.

 

If you are connecting the cable and not being prompted for drivers, it is most likely NOT going to work.

 

If drivers came with the cable, then install them -- as that might get it working.
