This is a personal request, so feel free to ignore it. 
 
Does anyone have a DVI-D to DFP cable that I could borrow for
troubleshooting? I have a monitor at home that isn't working right, and I
suspect the cable. The single input on the monitor requires a DFP (digital
flat panel) plug. This was a connector used on the very earliest digital
monitors, and in my experience is pretty rare. The monitor is old enough
that I don't want to invest in a new cable only to find out that the monitor
itself is at fault, because I have no other use for the cable and I'm sure
the monitor isn't worth the cost of a repair. On the other hand, I would buy
a new cable if it fixes the problem.
 
This is what the cable looks like:
