So I just got a LCD monitor, but somehow... I can't get the DVI cable to work, it only works with my VGA cable for some reason.

My video card is e-GeForce 8800 GT and my monitor is Samsung SyncMaster 2343 BWX

Any suggestions?

What have you tried to get the DVI cable working?

Was your computer off or did you reset it after changing cables? Is it the right cable for you monitor/GPU? Make sure the cable is a DVI-D cable or DVI-I cable. Is the card new? Have you used the DVI port before?

I turned the computer off and turned it back on with the DVI cable and it works now, thanks.
