old hp not compatible with new mini mac? My new mini mac 2 arrived today. Now my old monitor (hp 2011x) doesn’t work. I’ve tried changing ports and adapters. I get this for a couple seconds, then the monitor goes into sleep mode. Do I need a newer monitor? I’m also reading usb c mac to monitor is better than hdmi. True?

What monitor do you have?

(make and model numbers)

Most any display/monitor, will work with the Mac Mini using the proper adapter and cable.
