I have a graphics card with a display port, HDMI and vdi-d. HDMI is already in use, and I want to add a second screen which has VGA cable. As far as I know VGA to vdi-d won’t work, will VGA to display port will work?

    Short answer: yes, vga -> dp adapters do exist and work.

    Longer answer: In general, VGA is old enough that most things don’t play well with it, even if theoretically possible, usually not a good idea.
