Hello... is there a power connector for your video card? 1) try cleaning video card connector with rubbing alcohol and reseating it
2) set the bios for Pcie save and exit.
3) try a different connector on the Video card to your monitor and set the Monitor for that connector.
4) try the video card in a different computer.

Hello... the Best Graphics will be with a HDMI or DVI connection... VGA connection is not what we want your video card to work at...Or DO YOU? WE are just doing some TESTS here to see if your Video card is Good or Bad...OK?
So you are trying to use a VGA only Monitor with the 9800 gt? or 9800GTX ? And your using an walmart adaptor with this setup? This is important information and YES!!! could be the reason why this isn't working B )
Please Give a complete picture of what you are using and how you are using it please.
List all the parts to me... model #'s brands etc...
if it's a double wide Video card it is a GTX if it's isn't it's a GT.

Hello... VGA is a analog siginal DVI is a digital signal... Most older cards like yours will have both VGA and DVI signals on the one of the DVI connectors on the card... and you need to make sure you get the proper adaptor for that use...
