“Bought this monitor AOC i2779vh tonight. Computer is HP Pavilion 400 PC. I thought "VGA compatible" meant I could connect- but there is an HDMI cable included and no receptor port for it on the "tower". I did connect the VGA ports. Screen blank.”

you have to set the screen to receive from the d-sub line.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.I connected my 27" to my old 12 year old computer using a VGA cable and it worked fine. Works a lot better with HDMI.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Tim, What happened to the VGA cable you were using to connect your old monitor to your [old] tower?? THAT's the cable you need to use to connect this monitor to your old tower.. there's a blue connector on the back of this monitor (see attached pic), connect the cable there. Download the manual from AOC's website & read up on input selection. I have a pair of AOC's connected to two different towers, both have 1x VGA & 1x DVI connectors, I set the input to auto detect on both. That said, this is a good sized monitor, check your video card to make sure it can handle this large of monitor. Depending on what you do & how high of resolution you run, a video card with 512MB memory may prove inadequate. I recently started to run Win-7 Pro x64 with one of my towers, first I had to do a couple upgrades; one of them was a EVGA GT-730 video card with 2-gigs memory.
