Hi Jim, sorry no one's responded to your question yet. :(
I found something elsewhere which may be of some use:
"Most monitors that have DVI inputs use DVI-D signaling, or digital. If the DVI port on the card is a DVI-A (A for Ananlog) then it won't run the display. A DVI-I port does both. If you have a display with an analong (blue) cord then you can pop a DVI-VGA adapter onto the DVI port and see if it works. if it does then the DVI ports are analog or possibly DVI-I."
Also, have you looked in the Graphics Card settings to see if there's a switch to output the DVI signal?
That's all I can think of for now, but hopefully someone will be around later with some more ideas.

sorry which one do you not get the signal from, the existing one or the new one?
