Are you sure that the pins are broken? I am not sure about your IBM PS/2, but
there are not always pins in all of the slots. In addition, if the monitor is
really old, it my not be compatible with newer systems and could possibly
damage the video card. Again, I am not familiar with the PS/2 line and I
could be totally wrong.
