Both monitors use VGA with DVI adapter. 1st monitor working fine. Tried swapping adapters, didn't make any changes. Worked on previous card.
1000w PSU.
Ok, I just tried the 2nd monitor in the 1st slot. Said input was not supported. Does this mean I need a new monitor or a 2nd card to drive the monitor?

Think the resolution might not be supported. Going to try safe mode.
Could it be because I forced the resolution for my previous card?

Okay can I use a VGA to DVI-D adapter?
 

There are active DVI-D to VGA adapters, but either the quality is horrible or they are expensive.
