<div dir="auto">I did see something like that a long time ago. IIRC, it has two cables split off of it into what appeared to be two DVI connectors. Don't trust my memory, it's been a few years and I'm getting old, lol. Hopefully, someone will come up with a better idea of what it is <div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Bob</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote gmail_quote_container"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, Oct 27, 2025, 02:11 Mouse via geeks <<a href="mailto:geeks@sunhelp.org">geeks@sunhelp.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">I've got an HP machine which has a video card marked with the HP logo<br>
and "A4977A Vis EG-PCI". I'd like to use it - but the video connector<br>
is odd. It loooks like DVI at first blush, but it's not; the shell is<br>
longer than a DVI connector. It looks as though someone took a DVI<br>
connector and enlarged the 3x8 grid of pins to 3x10.<br>
<br>
Anyone know what this is, and, in particular, what it would take to<br>
connect it to a non-HP-specific monitor (DVI, VGA, even HDMI or DP if<br>
need be)?<br>
<br>
I tried replacing the card with a PCI video card from my stock of video<br>
cards, but I don't get any video out of it, leading me to suspect the<br>
ROM code is refusing to work with third-party video.<br>
