Monitor wont connect to Newly Built PC

[Forse]

So my PC is finally all put together so i take my Acer P216HL Monitor from my other cpu to look at my Bios screen, but my monitor does not read the computer and stays black(like in sleep mode). I have my monitor connected through the VGA connector directly to the motherboard. I can't try putting it in my graphics card because it has a DVI-I Port and i don't have a monitor with that cable yet. So my question is, what further steps do i need to make to get the monitor working?

Unplug your graphics card from the PC as it will likely disable the native graphics outputs.

Yes, remove the graphics card entirely. Most motherboards automatically disable integrated graphics when there is a GPU detected. Otherwise, try getting an adapter to be able to use the GPU, since DVI-I can be adapted to VGA.

Use a dvi-d - VGA dongle, cable to use the gpu, or remove the gpu and use the mobo VGA. Usually one is included in the original packaging of the gpu.
