Hello,
MY graphic card is HD 6850.
Have a look:

I want to connect my second monitor to my computer, but it dont detect second monitor.
Im ussing DVI-VGA adapter, because both my monitors are VGA.
I try switching cables, and i found out that my second DVI port dont work?
What should i do?

If it doesn't work you can try using a "Active" adapter for HDMI to VGA but if you are using it for gaming there is a bit of lag introduced when doing this conversion...

No it's not and there is nothing wrong with the card at all, most if not all cards these days only support one VGA monitor and if you look at the backplate on the card in your picture it states quite clearly which port that is.
