Hi! I was wondering if I can use a Dynex DVI male to VGA female adapter to hook my ati radeon X1900GT up to my HP v75 monitor.

Thanks for any help.

Yes it will, it just triggers the internal DAC on the GPU to output signal for a VGA connector, that functionality has been there for quite a while. Are you sure you dont already have one of those adapters? Most new GPUs come with one, i have 3 at home.

Sure.
Check the CRT for bent pins. It happens easily.

If it was used he may not have it anymore, or may have put it in another system, thats the down side of used items, no free goodies.
