| 662247 | 2008-04-24 21:46:00 | I have a cable, 1.8 m long, male connector at each end. The connectors look like VGA, but only have 11 pins. There is a label on it that says "I/F cable 3138 118 73410". I did a search on that number and all it turned up was an item on German Ebay that looked the same. Any ideas? |

| 662249 | 2008-04-24 22:49:00 | Try this search (en.wikipedia.org). | Greg (193) | ||
| 662250 | 2008-04-24 23:03:00 | it could be serial port cable that was present on sound cards, for joystick. | gum digger (6100) | ||
| 662251 | 2008-04-24 23:23:00 | It is too substantial and has too many or too few pins for a serial cable. Aren't serial cables either 9 or 25 pins? | Tony (4941) | ||
| 662252 | 2008-04-25 00:48:00 | A picture would help a lot. VGA cables often do not have the full complement of 15 pins, as not all are used. If this reference does not have it, then the cable does not exist :) http://www.hardwarebook.info/ |

| 662253 | 2008-04-25 01:19:00 | It is actually a vga cable. It certainly worked between my laptop and an external monitor. I suspected it was, but was put off by the number of pins. Clearly Terry, you are the man. | Tony (4941) | ||
