I am unable to connect an external video projector to my Lenovo G580 using a VGA cable. The laptop does not have a HDMI port and so that is not an option. The problem is that the VGA port on the laptop is recessed into the body and there is almost no room around the port and the plastic body frame. Has anyone else run into this issue? What can I do to get this fixed?

Thanks much for any ideas!
