[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1184226, member: 56379"] I don't need any more info. I was afraid that was the type of monitor you purchased. It has a "unique" single cable called an "ADC" connector. It was something that Apple tried about 5-8 years ago. As you may know...most monitors have two cables...a video cable & a power cable. This "ADC" cable does both. To make a a long story short...forget about trying to use this monitor with your MacBook. It's really not practically possible to try to adapt this monitor to work with your MacBook. It would cost you more than it would cost to purchase a brand new "modern" 22" monitor. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news,:) hopefully you didn't pay too much or it, - Nick [/QUOTE]
