Power Mac G4 computer w/o display monitor

In a move I've lost the display screen to my old Power Mac G4. I've gone to eBay and found many used G4 screens and bought one. The adapter from the screen doesn't fit the connection on my G4. I asked for Apply help and they said I need a screen with a VGA or DVI-D male connection. So far I have not been able to find one. I will attach a photo of the back of my G4. Any thoughts?

That is not an ADC port, but a DVI port. The ADC port was more oval in shape.


To the OP, any monitor which supports VGA or DVI should work. These are (or were) very common connections for years and at least one of them will be found on many monitors even today for backward compatibility.
