Do you have a DVI-I to VGA adapter?

The DVI-I port on the GeForce 9400GT is most likely the primary graphics port on the card. The VGA port may not become active until after the graphics card driver is loaded.

Do you have your dvi to vga adaptor to the Dvi-i?

MSI N9400GT-MD1G specifications

Video Output Function
Dual-link DVI-I x 1
VGA x 1
HDMI x 1

A DVI/VGA Adapter should have been included in the graphics card package.

DVI-D (digital video signals only)

DVI-A (analog video signals only)

DVI-I (both digital and analog video signals)
