I have a VGA (female) to DVI-I (male) connector and that is what I needed for my graphics card (EVGA GTX 560 Ti). But it won't work. My monitor (HP L1706 LCD) won't accept the transfer for some reason. It continues to refuse the connection. Please help!
 
On cards that I have seen, one DVI port is DVI-I, and the other is DVI-D. The adapter doesn't fit on the DVI-D port.
High end cards from AMD usually don't have an analog output.
For example, the 290X does not have a DVI-I connector, both are DVI-D. However, the 270X does have one DVI-I connector.
