I just bought a new PC.  It doesn’t have a monitor, which is OK since I
hardly ever use one.  It has an HDMI cable, but the monitor I have has
the old-style cable with the pin connector.  I’m sure there’s an HDMI to
whatever cable, but does anyone know what that other kind of connector
is called, so I get the right thing?

Also, it said something about the monitor needing to be the “active”
type, which means nothing to me.  How could I tell whether the monitor I
have is “active”?  I bet it’s not, because it’s older, though not ancient.
