Post Body

Hey everyone,

I used to use an old TV as my external monitor using a USB C to HDMI adapter and that worked great until the TV stopped working altogether...

I was given a free old HPL2245wg monitor which has no HDMI input, so I'm trying to figure out how to get it working with my Lenovo S340.

I've plugged the USB C to USB A cable in but nothing happens. I would prefer not to have to buy a bunch of cables and converters to keep costs down.

Inputs at the back or the monitor are DVA, VGI, USB A, USB B (see pic)

Thanks for the help!
