JP,

 

   Cables like these will work. Note that these cables are
unidirectional, which means HDMI/DisplaPort at the computer end to VGA
monitor only and not VGA port at the computer to HDMI/DisplayPort monitor.
If you already have VGA to VGA cables, then you will need HDMI (male) to VGA
(female) and DisplayPort (male) to VGA (female) adapters.

Good evening, 

 

I'm using a computer that has one HDMI port and one Display port. I need to
feed dual 1080 p monitors, one of which has a single vga input and the other
which has a vga and a dvi input.  This not a gaming setup, it's just ham
radio. Amazon has a variety of splitters and adapters available, and I could
probably some up with some jerry-rigged combination gizmos, but I'm not sure
how far you can go with different kinds of adapters. Rather than spending
money on stuff that might not work I would really appreciate any suggestions
from you computer gurus on ways to solve this issue.

for both, there are a lot of cheap converter adapters. I use a multitude of
them on different devices. They are pretty solid usually. Just search "HDMI
to DVI" or "Display port to CGA" etc on Amazon.

If you need more help let me know,
