[Elecraft] P3SVGA windowing

Hi,

I really appreciate the higher resolution and detail available using the 
P3SVGA, but I have no room for a separate monitor in my setup. I have 
been using the monitor's input switching to see the P3SVGA's display but 
it is clumsy and slow, and I want to be able to see my logging software 
simultaneously with the P3SVGA.  The monitor is big enough that I would 
be able to display the P3SVGA display in a window.  I have already tried 
a VGA to HDMI converter looped into the HDMI input of my Blackmagic 
video acquisition card, but some video parameter is incompatible 
(horiz/vert freq, etc.) and I get no output. Here is my question:

What VGA acquisition device (VGA>USB2/3, VGA>HDMI, VGA>FW400/800...) if 
any have other P3SVGA owners used that works correctly in Win7?

Thanks in advance!
