Mini Display Port broken - Alternative for external monitor?

Hello,

my mini display port is breaking. It works only when i wiggle the adapter and put it somehow in a very specific position.

As i use my mid 2012 macbook pro 90% of times connected to a external monitor i wanted to ask if there are alternatives how to connect a monitor if the mini display port is broken.

I already tried to connect a USB to VGA adapter. Was not recognised unfortunately.

Thank you!

cheers. henner
