My GPU (AMD 5450) is not driving my display (Acer AL1702W), however it has no problem running my samsung d5000 display. However, it works fine with my onboard graphics the problem arises when I try to run it with my gpu in which case it gives me a no signal message. Also if we swap the cable from the acer to the samsung after boot the display settings in windows shows that the display is acer and the recomended resolution is being set by windows but I still don't get any output from the display.
Can anyone please tell me whats going on and how I can fix it. I can't think of any good reason why this would happen

I did try with a different cable but got the same result with only one. I din't try to set a resolution windows automatically detects the display and selects the default resolution.

The driver was not helpful :(
I don't think its a driver issue, the display doesn't even display the bios or anything it just displays "no signal".

The monitor works fine on other systems and even on my igp it just won't work with my card's port. The gpu works fine in other systems as well.
