Problem with 30" HD Cinema and regular laptop

[michael8700]

Hi guys!
Well, i have a 30" HD Cinema (Old guy, but hey, he works).

Problem is i want to use this also on my other laptop which only has HDMI and VGA Out.


The monitor is equipped with DVI, and i have tryed connecting a DVI-D > HDMI adapter, but it will only display half the resolution intended.

Can i buy some sort of converter box, so that i can enjoy my 30" on my laptop as well?

Kind regards

Basically no. HDMI doesn't support dual-link resolutions (i.e.: those over 1920x1200) and VGA won't work as the 30" ACD is DVI-D only. Half resolution is as good as you'll get I'm afraid.
