Hello, so recently I bought my friends old Asus GTX 960 2GB DDR5 for really cheap, when I came home and plugged it into my PC slot and then connected it with my TV it worked flawlessly.
After testing it on my Television, I went onto my old monitor (HP 1702) 15.6 inch square monitor.

I used a DVI-I to VGA Adapter because my monitor only has a VGA port, well, display came until the windows boot screen and it went away as soon as windows came to boot in.

Then I pluged my PC back to my Television through HDMI Cable, I turned up the resolution and it worked fine with HDMI too.

Hence, I thought DVI Port is not in good condition, so I ordered a HDMI to VGA Adapter and I tried it again with my PC and it didn't work.

Well, then I used the HDMI to VGA Connector with my OLD GPU (Radeon HD 7750) and it shows display in my monitor, but when plugged in with 960 it doesn't.

PS : When I used my television, I maxed out the resolutions, does it affect anyhow the connectivity when I come to connect it with my monitor?

PC Specs.
Processor : AMD FX-6300.
Motherboard : Gigabyte GA-78lmt-s2pt
 


Set the resolution to 800*600 on your tv. The gpu and windows may have trouble detecting the max res of the old display and won't adjust it to what it supports. Because you turned it up above a supported res that the hp supports it won't display.

Haven't tried what you said yet, but I suppose that the GPU should atleast show bootscreen with monitor, but it isn't showing that too.
I'll try your method too.
