56cheffy   10 #1 Posted January 10, 2007 I've been trying to get a cable with 15 pins each end but have had no luck at 2 shops....Do they exist or are they unique to DELL.  I need it to connect a DELL monitor to my tower. All I can seem to find is a 15pin and 9 pin the other end!  Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

neeeeeeeeeek   10 #3 Posted January 11, 2007 Is it an monitor extension cable or just a cable direct from the monitor? Does the monitor not have a cable at all? Either way they are available but extension ones are usually cheaper. I had a monitor cable somewere.. Also have you tried Ebay?
