i took out my old card put the new one in as i go to plug the moniter in there is no socket for it on the new card, it has a socket for the monitor on my old card, do i leave that card in as well???????????? or what help

The sockets on your card are probably DVI's and your monitor cable is VGA. You'll need an end adapter that your card should of provided or go get one yourself or see if you can find a cheap DVI cable if your monitor takes it.

Yea, did your new video card come with a bunch of extra stuff? Look through it and you should be able to find a connector that will connect your monitor to your new card.

Man, Main rule to Buy new PC stuff:
Check what U have and find something alike or some adapter that makes it the same.

Anyway, what they said is correct, there are DVI to vga adapters, or, it might be the time to change your monitor too
