Is it just a wire with the different connections on each end? Or does it have a converter in the middle, with settings you can change?

Can you upload a pic of your converter?

You will need something that converts the signal from VGA to RGB. What Shaun has linked above should work great. I found another one at Radio Shack that I have used in the passed and has worked well for me - see below.

Hey Rafel I Bought that grandtec gxp2000 and i ran into a problem.I hooked it up but i couldnt get a picture ? the only thing i saw was the standard red green blue and whote bars . also i had acess to the menu but i could generate a picture? do i need to check the display setting in my mac?
. So what i did was i ran a yellow rca to video out to one on the screens and i didnt get anything, i changed the output swith to the recomended setting but .. nothing.. if yo uhave one of these caould you give me a rundown on how you have your hooked up? thanks

You have to look in the manual for the device. It lists different connections, tvs, inputs, outputs including the recommended Hz and resolution specs. Took me about 15 mins to figure out what settings I needed for my Tvs etc.

Every situation is going to be different so I wont be able to tell you exactly what to do.

You will have to look in the manuals for the device.
