Um, what's a dfp to dvi cable? Is Gateway using something proprietary? I'm aware of a DVI connection, but not a DFP connection.

It's just a hundred dollars. Risk it

Sell it on eBay if it doesn't work.

I would doubt that they'd sell a working LCD for $100.

that is a crap moniter, ghosts something terrible and has a poor contrast ratio. Buddy of mine works for gateway and had one. He ebayed it and bought a viewsonic. I wouldn't take a chance on it unless i was certain it worked. good luck finding a cable.
