I was wondering if this is compatible with a Dimension 5100.

There is nothing done to the computer except a WD 1TB hard drive. I have heard reviews that stated that it had problems running on some dell products. Any help would be appreciated.

Im not trying to make it a gaming machine or anything like that just trying to get the display to 1080p.

VGA can do 1080p. VGA is analog and HDMI is digital and as far as I know it can be tricky going from one to the other w/o an active adapter. Most of them "don't work." You may have some luck with them if they are 30$+ but a lot of the time they don't work.
