That sounds like it is connected properly, but you are getting no signal at all. It is possible that there is a problem with the adapter or the card, but most likely the BIOS needs to be told that the card is there, or the card is not seated properly and not being recognized, or you have the unusual overclocked 7750 model that requires a PCI-e power connector to be attached. Try...

Are you sure the new card is properly seated in the PCI-Express slot? Did you plug your monitor in the new video card or is it still plugged into integrated? What interface are you using? DVI? HDMI? If you changed the type of cable you need to change the input on the monitor too.

yes I did plug my monitor into the new card and still read "going to sleep" I use the DVI-I that was included in the box with the card. I dont think I need to change something when I use this? this is the 1 st card I have installed so will try again to make sure it is in correctly. here is some spec if needed: AMD A-8 5500 with Radeon Hd 7560 D MOBO MSI 2AEO Jasmine

Disable the integrated graphics card and restart your PC in safe-mode. Try to install the 7750 drivers while in safe mode with the IGPU disabled. Then reboot and see if it works. If you get to the point where you're installing the graphics card's drivers and the computer states that there are no graphics cards present for that software; either the card isn't plugged in properly or you may have a defective GPU.

It sounds like you are using a VGA monitor and a VGA-to-DVI adapter that came with the card. Some cards have both a DVI-I and a DVI-D connector. If you were plugged into the DVI-D connector, your monitor would not recognize it.

it says a DVI-I and to connect to a VGA I plug the VGA to the DVI-I then the DVI-I to the card slot for the DVI-I should I disable the IGPU ?

Try the BIOS again, looking for settings like video configuration, primary video or PCI. If the BIOs doesn't provide a solution, and reseating the card doesn't work, the best test would be if you could try the card in another computer. Good luck.
