I purchased "1080p Hdmi Male input to VGA + Audio Output Cable Converter Adapter for Hdtv Pc" at Amazon's suggestion. I was unable to view laptop images on my LG HDTV. The laptop has a Nvidia card and works with analog TV. My solution was to purchase another computer (used) with an HDMI output - not very economical but it did work. KS

Although I haven't had the need for a device like this for my system, this adapter should work great for what you need. BillEtekcity® VGA Audio to HDMI 720p/1080p Scaler Converter Adapter Box for Laptop/PC Full HD HDTV with DC Power

This product did not work for me to go from VGA to HDMI. I believe this product goes the other way (HDMI to VGA). Additionally, the VGA connection you need, needs to be a male connection to connect to the female port on your computer. This is the product that worked for me. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EV6AARC/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

It didn't work to connect my hdmi pc to my vga monitor. I had to buy HDMI Input to VGA Adapter Converter For PC Laptop NoteBook HD DVD. Also, it wouldn't work from my old vga pc to a hdmi tv.

i have 2 monitors hooked up - 1 through standard VGA and 1 through a DVI -> HDMI connector (the computer has an HDMI port). but they are old monitors, and it took a bit of doing to find the correct windows drivers. but it is doable.

There is a VGA output which we have connected to a 32 inch HD TV. The extended display works well (laptop screen + external monitor). Haven't tried the HDMI port, but would guess that works as well.

i have my tv hooked up to my computer with a vga cable. It will work with any tv this way. I no longer have cable b/c it's really pointless for me to have 500 channels when i can watch them all online for 15% of what i was paying. If u hook it up to your computer it will work

VGA is only for the Visual section, if your laptop came with a Audio Jack, theirs many different kinds one is yellow and only one type of connection, and the other is a normal speaker jack that might work only if the TV has a connection for the speaker jack in the back of it...hope this works if all else fails go to your local Computer store and by an adapter specially made for conversion from the PC to the TV... best of luck

Bought mine for the other way around - PC graphics card had HDMI and I wanted to connect to an old VGA monitor. It worked but it may not work for PC VGA out to TV HDMI in. I reference the product description where it says "HDMI to VGA / RCA cable is designed to connect and transfer signals from HDMI port to VGA / RCA port". It doesn't specifically call out a reverse capability. It's so cheap however and has free shipping that you could take a chance and find our for yourself.

Yes, you can, I was very pleased, none of the stores had this or knew how to do it, but it makes the connection and works with older vga devices, when you have the newer HDMI ports. Very pleased. Jim Moore

MANUFACTURER ANSWER: Just to clarify regarding this question, the cable will only work going from an HDMI output source to a VGA input. So if your PC has HDMI output and your TV has VGA input, it's likely this will work. If it's the other way around (VGA output to HDMI input) it will not work.

It didn't work for me. No signal at all. I have since found out that you need a analog to digital converter to convert the VGA (analog) signal to the HDMI (digital)signal. I may be explaining this wrong, but something like this. Regardless, i had to order a totally different cable with a converter. This cable did nothing for me.

It should work with a VGA to HDMI, but it will not work HDMI to VGA. I only tested the latter. I hope that helps.

it might not be compatible this way it may be only backwards compatible HDMI from the laptop to VGA the TV. I only have experience trying to dumb down component for TV. I don't know if it speeds up VGA to HDMI. Sorry I can't help.

No vga port but if your pc has an hdmi port I'd highly recommend using a hdmi rather than a vga connection. Hdmi is as good as a vga connection

You need the convertor adaptor to do so.....I done it before for HDMI, but never try VGA.
