Problem with monitor OR motherboard/gfx card

[Mickk]

Hey broes, I just bought a new PC, and I have managed to stumble upon a problem, on the get-go! Now this PC has an AMD Radeon HD7750 2GB card. But unfortunataly it has an DVI port which I dont have and the motherboards's is a VGA obviously. So I plugged it and it doesn't work (the monitor is a TV and it can't detect the video files its recieving).

So the question is, is the monitor screwed or cant I use motherboard graphics while there's a gfx card plugged in. Lately I've been dropping F-bombs 'cause this REALLY pisses me off. Any help is appreciated.

I'm pretty sure that if you have a graphics card in the system, that the video system on the motherboard will have been disabled.

So, to get your motherboard video card to work, you need to;
a) remove the Radeon video card and
b) somehow turn the motherboard video back on.

However, before trying that, there should be a DVI to VGA converter that should have come with the video card.

It is a plug in device that goes into the DVI port on the video card.

If you don't have one, you should be able to go to where you got your PC from and buy one from there.
