The good news, where it comes to 1.4 versus 2, is that you don’t need to rush out and buy new cables. To take advantage of the 2.0 specyou just need both devices on each end of the cable to be 2-compatible.

Plug the USB device into a different USB port on your PC. USB Type-C has a new feature called Alternate Modes. If your USB-C cable has this feature, you can connect to non-USB devices that support the same Alternate Mode. For example, if your USB-C cable has the Thunderbolt Alternate Mode, you can connect to Thunderbolt devices. There's no setting to turn on—your device automatically uses the appropriate mode if it's supported. Note: This applies to all the error codes shown in Device Manager except error Code 28 (drivers for the device aren’t installed).

You’re probably wondering about the different types of connectors available for your device, so let’s dive into the various options for converting DVI to USB-C.

When it comes to audio compatibility, the right adapter can make all the difference. You need one that will allow you to transmit sound without sacrificing quality or ease of use. Choose HDMI 2 if DisplayPort isn’t available or if you require audio over 144Hz (as DVI doesn’t support audio) If you have a USB-C analog audio adapter connected to your PC, unplug it, then connect a USB-C digital audio adapter instead. You’re in search of a tool to connect your devices, and you want it to be as versatile as possible. To get started, plug one end of the adapter into your computer’s USB-C port and the other end into your monitor’s DVI port.Make sure your PC, the external display, and the cable all support DisplayPort or MHL alternate modes. Keep in mind that the number of displays you can connect will depend on the specific adapter you choose and the capabilities of your computer’s graphics card. It’s also important to make sure that any additional monitors you connect are compatible with the adapter and your computer’s hardware. If you’re wondering how to connect your old monitor to your new laptop, it’s essential to understand the differences between DVI and USB-C ports. Make sure the device or dongle is connected to the USB-C port on your PC that supports the correct Alternate Mode. For example, if you're connecting a Thunderbolt Alternate Mode device, make sure you connect to the USB-C port that supports Thunderbolt™.
