The DVI port is another ordinary port on laptops and televisions, easily illustrious from the older VGA port by its longer look and the slot on the right side. You can also use VGA port, but it is an older, analog connector. It’s very common on older laptops and computers. If you don’t have VGA port than you need a VGA cable and a DVI-to-VGA adaptor. DVI-I port has a solid block of pin holes. If your DVI port contains two square groups of pin holes, it cannot be changed to VGA. Check it out and reply.
