    Hello :O)

    I would be happy to use your help.
    Just brought a Zenbook UX31E to one of my clients today.
    He is a traveling doctor and afraid to lose the supplied mini vga to vga adapter.

    I wondered if this adapter might work :
    VGA to Mini VGA Cable (White) - Free Shipping - DealExtreme

    Or maybe someone can link me to a proper adapter with international shipping.

    Thank you

    Hi Fish72, that adapter does look like it will work. Its mini male on one side and standard female on the other. That should be exactly what you need.

    The white mini-VGA adaptors will NOT work. I ordered some and they definitely are not the same thing. Apparently there are at least two different connectors referred to as "mini-VGA".

    If anyone finds out where to buy additional adapters (they are out of stock at ASUS) please let me know.

    You are right Dtowell. The connectors were too big to fit into the Zenbook.
    I think Asus is the only place to get these.
    Maybe Asus European or Taiwanese site still has some of these in stock.
