Hi @fegelein3290 ,

What is the make and model number of the monitor?

What resolutions does it support?

Have you tried a different DVI cable?

by

Do you know for sure the monitor works? Have you tried switching inputs on the monitor?

by

yes ive tried a lot

by

ive tried on 3 different monitors actually

Are you using the same DVI cable among the 3 monitors as well as the TV? What pin style is the DVI cable you are using vs the pin style on your Optiplex vs the DVI pin style of the TV?

Based on your responses in this thread, I suspect a DVI-I (male) to DVI-D(Female) may do the trick, the adapter itself is ~$3 online

If your monitors support HDMI, maybe just keep the connection of DVI to HDMI.

Good luck!
