Hello , I'm new to this forum and I hope to get some help :

I have a HP Pavilion p6330be recently updated to windows 10 working just fine . I bought a new GTX 960 SSC and new 500W power supply .

After i've installed the necessary updates I connected 4 monitors but only 2 worked Samsung 22" using DVI-I to HDMI Cable & HP 22" using VGA to DVI-I adapter .

The other 2 monitors Samsung ( 20" & 22" ) connected through DP to VGA adapter are not working , when I press the Menu button it says " TEST GOOD " and that's it .

In the NVIDIA control panel there is only 2 monitors displayed but in the windows Display setting it detect 4 monitors but I can't manage it as the 2 working ones. 

I bought this GTX960 knowing that it can handle 4 monitors so what's the problem with my setup ?

    What should I do to verify what exactly is not working ?

    Test the dp outputs on the card with a known good monitor that accepts dp without using any adapters.

    I only have monitors with VGA / DVI and already bought DP to VGA adapter as I thought it will work just fine.
    I'm not looking for high quality resolution , I only need 4 displays for work purpose !

    Only thing I could suggest then would be to test a different set of adapters/cables. You could also take the video card to a computer repair shop and have them test the outputs on the card.

    Thanks for the suggestion I'll try the video card with my friend desktop / monitors to see if it's working correctly or not.
    In the meantime if anyone had the same problem and got a fix please share the solution .

    The card worked fine but same problem with displayport !!
    I've looked around in other forums and seems this problem is linked to power supply maybe .. I'm not sure but I tried some solutions with no result !!
