silly question, where do you put your VGA cable? Am assuming since you are using integrated graphics card your cable is still in motherboard vga slot, since that card doesn't have VGA port. You need to put hdmi or dvi cable in graphics card and monitor.

I didnt mean to select this answer i have separate display ports on my graphics cards, so i bought a VGA adapter to connect to the port for my monitor and nothing happens it connects with a black screen like its sleeping

So, to be clear, you plug in a display port to VGA adapter to your video card and connect a VGA cable from there to your monitor?

I have 3 Display ports on my videocard when i insert my VGA adapter to the . Port to connect my monitor(which is connected to adapter) which is also VGA and my screen stays sleeper mode

Well, DisplayPort is a digital signal. VGA is analog. You will need a converter that will convert the digital to analog. That will require something more than an adapter. You will need some sort of electronic converter. Maybe something like this: https://www.amazon.com/StarTech-DP2VGA-DisplayPort-Adapter-Converter/dp/B001RPCZL4 (not a recommendation for that particular product.)
