I have a newly acquired gtx 760 and my last GPU was a 550ti which has 2 DVI inputs so i had 2 DVI to vga converters but when i got the 760 it only has 1 DVI 1 HDMI and 1 display port 1.2 so to try and get 2 monitors running i bought a HDMI to DVI adapter and then plugged my DVI to vga adapter into that and then connected it to my monitor.

In the Nvidia control panel i can see the other monitor and i can move thing over and what not but it remains black i have tried re installing the video card drivers and doing any windows updates any suggestions its really annoying i have to say that i cant use duel monitors with my new graphics card so help is appreciated!

Sometimes conversions don't work. It would probably work out of the display port. Otherwise if you are still using VGA it is time to upgrade!
