You should be able to get an adapter from DVI to VGA or DP to VGA, you will need an active adapter

What CPU do you have?

If it have iGPU, then you can re-enable it in bios and the ports on the motherboard will be available

-sigh- feeling like I'm being too negative lately

Then get the adapter? If your GPU has DVI and DP then get the adapter from the available port to the connector your monitor uses.

Enable iGPU in the bios

It's disabled by default when it detects a dGPU

Every bios is different so you'll have to poke around

You could snap photo and upload here on your phone if you're unsure

i would add that not every company makes the best bios

and if you do mess something up, just reset the bios (should be an option in there on the save and exit page, or use jumper)

HP confirms that the Intel-based HP Compaq 6200 Pro Series desktop systems contain DDR3 volatile memory (memory amount depends on the customer configuration). In addition, the motherboard, in the condition originally shipped (without subsequent modification or the addition or installation of any applications, features, or functionality), contains the following nonvolatile memory: Real Time Clock battery backed-up configuration memory (256 Bytes), DIMM Serial Presence Detect (SPD) configuration data (256 Bytes per module, 128 Bytes programmable), Serial Peripheral Interface (SPI) ROM for System BIOS (8M Bytes) and Super I/O’s: masked keyboard ROM (overall 2K Bytes). In addition, these units contain a Trusted Platform Module (TPM) that contains 16K Bytes of nonvolatile memory for consumer data. The volatile memory will not hold any consumer data once power has been removed for 30 seconds or longer.                      

 

 

no clue what this means or anything but if you can help me out it would be appreciated!!!!             https://support.hp.com/us-en/document/c03503774

then it would be quite hard for me to guide you

 

perhaps sending an email to HP asking how to enable the iGPU would yield better results
