I bought an gt 730 2gb gddr5 for 75$ and my monitor won't turn on both (RGB and HDMI fail to work) so i mounted back my old graphic card, a shitty 256 mb ddr2 quadro nvs 290.
I have 2 gb ram ddr2, windows 7 x64, core 2 duo e4600 2,4ghz and psu 300w.
what seems to be the problem ?
Btw, i bought my gt card fully new, with 2 cd's and from a thrusty IT shop so if the card is at fault, i shall call them to change it or to send somebody who is capable to make it work ?
Before this quadro, i had my pc's first gpu, ati x1550 of 512 mb.
Please help me because i so wish to play Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter, Future Soldier,Assassin's Creed and some others that would work on 2 gb ram ddr2 until i change them with ddr3+ a good gygabyte motherboard.

Its the problem of your monitor. Not the gpu. Benq VZ2250h monitor has the same problem.
So select hdmi/dvi/vga whatever cable you have connected to your GPU to monitor, as it is on the monitor. I mean, if you use hdmi cable from GT 730 to monitor, then select hdmi as input in your monitor. Hope this helps.
