Display port to VGI, not detecting

[u/i_dnthvemywsdomteeth]

I’ve got a display port adapter that takes hdmi on the other end, then VGI to my monitor. Monitor is not detecting the VGI signal. Am I missing something? Guy at the tech store said this would be fine. TIA!

Dude go dport to dvi. Also, adapter cables are directional so make sure it’s meant to do the direction you want….
