Hello!

Had to install Windows 10 on my early 2011 MacBook PRO 13" using bootcamp (it was a lot of butthurt but I managed).
Now everything's going good but the only critical problem for me is absence of external monitor (VGA of course).
Windows 10 just doesn't see it! I've updated all Intel drivers but it didn't solve the problem.
Has anyone faced this problem?

Could you please help me with it

My goal is to use external monitor whith closed Macbook.

Why use a very old clunky VGA based monitor??...when much better non-VGA monitors can be purchased very cheaply used (or new)...if you prefer new.:)

Every non-VGA monitor I've used with my Mac's never had an issue (full sized DVI, mini-DVI, mini-displayport, HDMI, ADC, etc.).

Monitor is new - I just use it for another laptop (DVI) and VGA for my MBP.
But macbook is too old for WIn10 and isn't supported - there is no drive for HD 3000...

If you have an older version of Windows, like 7 or 8, you can install that, then do the upgrade to Windows 10 and you should be good to go from there.
