a graphics card, http://www.exciteit.co.uk/store/EXCITE_viewItem.asp?idProduct=50663

and a converter (do I really need to go to this expense)? Video Converter DVI digital VGA analog Quad Screen Splitter PC TV
I am not into gaming, this is for Photoshop use. Thanks.

i’d just get the adaptor or a new gfx card, you are just wasting you money if you get the convertor

It’d be pointless to buy a new GFX card so just get a DVI to VGA adapter.
Much cheaper.
