Thank you for your reply, I'll be more than glad to help you.
I understand that you purchased a DIV-IM to VGA adapter but the DIV pin does not fit to the computer. I also see that the link to the website is not opening.
As of now, our website is going through an upgrade.
Please get back to us with the model number of the computer to check the connection.
You have a good day ahead.

Thank you for your reply, I'll be more than glad to help you.
You need to use the HDMI to VGA adapter so that you can connect HDMI end to the Omen computer and the VGA end to HP monitor.
Let me know if this works.
You have a good day ahead.
