Make sure its on the right dvi port.

if you cant get it to run from the Graphics card try plugging your monitor into the VGA port on your Motherboard, install windows, and once in windows make sure it is recognizing your GPU in device manager. Then go from there. If it is go ahead and install drivers, shut down, and move monitor back to GPU and reboot. If it isn't shut down and try reseating your GPU, then try again.

Hello... The GTX750 doesn't have a VGA ( analog ) Signal available?.... You need a DVI/HDMI ( Digital ) Signal input Monitor? Modern Technology has evolved past VGA ( analog ) signals being provided in current Video Card products... Check your Brand/Model for DATA or Specs that confirm or deny your assumption here.
Typically a RAMDAC is used or mentioned on the card specs for Digital to Analog conversion.
