Graphic card not working with monitor
Last response: in Graphics & Displays
Okay so i bought a new GPU and PSU. The PSU works fine but when i tried to hook up the graphics card and turn on the computer, my monitor was blank and it made one beep. I take it out and it workds fine.
I believe i already have a graphics card built into my computer so i just put it the new graphics in too. I plugged my PSU into the new Graphics card. Im not sure what cable monitor i have but its blue and it isnt connected to my new graphics card because it is a different cable. Plus i never removed the software from the old GPU, idk if that makes a difference.
So do i need to get a new monitor cable or do is the GPU just a bad one? Sorry im really confused, so im probably not making much sense.

First look in the box for the adapter in order to connect your VGA style cable to your graphics cards DVI connection. Here is a front and back look at a dvi/vga adapter http://cdn.avsforum.com/2/2b/2b0dd6f0_dvi2vga.jpeg
Once you get your computer booted up on the new graphics card you will need to install the new software for that card, as well as removing the software from your previous one.

For now you have to either, buy a DVI cable or buy an adapter with the cross + 4 prongs to go from DVI to VGA.
I would just grab a DVI cable as long as its not to expensive. As for which one you might need to check this wiki to be absolutely sure: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface
(I'd do it for you but I'm leaving, sorry![:(]( ":(")
