    Hello,

    I am trying to get dual monitors working using a Sony Vaio docking station. I've connected one monitor using VGA port, which is simple enough.

    Problem I'm having is with the DVI-D port for the second monitor. If I have a monitor with a DVI-I port will this work with the DVI-D port on the docking station? If so, what cable(s)/adaptors will I need?? I read that you cannot connect a DVI-I cable to a DVI-D port (only DVI-D cable to DVI-I port), if so is there an adaptor available?? :confused:

    Thanks in advance.

    Tim
