Trouble with connecting dual monitors on my PC

[swagpies22]

Hello I was trying to connect 2 monitors to my PC and have them both running. But I have a problem I ran into. So I plugged my first monitor in with DVI into my graphics card and it works. But I don't have anymore slots on my graphics card other then HDMI which my second monitor does not support nor my first monitor.

So I decided to plug in my second monitor with VGA into my motherboard but there is no signal. The first time I plugged my pc in I used VGA and I had it in the motherboard and I think it worked but then sometime I think I switched to DVI on my graphics card because one time it just stopped working.The second monitor works fine and will work with the DVI cord from the graphics card.

I don't know exactly what to do..Should I go to the bios and change something? Iv'e heard I need integrated graphics graphics on my cpu or something like that but I don't know where to start.

Here's my CPU and GPU.
CPU-Intel i3-7100
GPU- NIVIDIA Geforce 1050TI Thanks for helping if you can.
Motherboard MSI Gaming Pro something lol

Generally, when you plug in a GPU, the mobo's internal graphics are disabled. Some mobos have a bios setting to turn the integrated graphics back on. You need to check the mobo manual to see if this is available. The easiest solution would be to get an "active" HDMI to VGA adapter. It needs to be active because the GPU output is digital and needs to be converted to an analog VGA signal. Here's an example, it's a pretty cheap solution: https://www.amazon.com/Active-Adapter-Benfei-Converter-Gold-Plated/dp/B01KLKQN9U

If the second monitor can take a DVI connection you can avoid the "active" adapter that Scottray linked and just get either a HDMI to DVI adapter or a HDMI to DVI cable that has it built in.
