PC Peripherals HDMI to VGA Cable

[zero_cool]

I have an old monitor that I don't want to discard right away. The issue is it only has a DVI-D and VGA ports. I can use a HDMI to DVI-D cable and use the former but the latter seems wasted. I have been looking for a HDMI to VGA cable, not a converter, that can solve my woes. So far, I have come across only this cable that rivals the cost of the monitor. Something like this would totally solve my issues but I don't see it in India. Any suggestions are welcome.

I bought and used this https://www.amazon.in/Sounce-Conver...1650186301&sprefix=hdmi+to+vga,aps,317&sr=8-5 sucessfully. It works but display appears later in boot process. i.e. no access to BIOS or POST screen. It needs power via an USB port.
