I’m trying NOT to use the VGA.  That’s why I was asking about going from dvi to 
DP.
For dual HDMI, not really thought about that, I have a DP to dual DVI I use 
with my laptop and not real happy with that setup, it looks like one monitor to 
the OS and I don’t really like the behavior.  I think the dual HDMI adapter if 
there is oen would function similarly.

I can probably get something to go from DVI to HDMI (maybe, not certain).

Why not use a dual hdmi display adapter instead of trying to use vga on an hdmi 
capable monitor?

Got a new machine with higher end graphics card, got new monitors too.
Monitors have VGA, HDMI and DP inputs.
Higher end graphics card has DVI, HDMI and VGA output.
the monitor connected via VGA is not as crisp as the one connected via HDMI

I don’t think DVI to DP adapters exist. I guess will need an active converter 
to do that. DVI to HDMI to active converter to DP.  Sounds like fun.

So, your display can do just DP?

Does anybody know if I can convert FROM DVI to Displayport.  Going DP to DVI is 
easy, but I’ve never tried the dongles and adapters going the other way.
