DVI CABLE?
« on: November 02, 2010, 05:14:27 PM »
Hi,

First let me say that I'm completely computer stupid. I just bought an LG LED monitor for my DELL XPS 7100 and there is no DVI cable included. There seems to be a few different kinds of DVI cables available (i.e DVI to VGA, etc) Im totally lost as to what I need? Thanks for your help.

The Dell XPS 7100 has a DVI output connector.  Does the LG LED monitor have a DVI input connector?
See p. 9 of this:  http://support.dell.com/support/edocs/systems/Studio7100/en/sg/sg_en.pdf

Check the package documentation of your LG Monitor of what type of accessories(cable) it contain or if something is amiss. If a Manual is with it, read to know if the type of monitor you bought is match with the type of computer you have, usually on cable socket(s) matching...

I've never seen DVI cable included, most likely because of its cost....about 50 bucks.
