Monitor issue

Gave my brother a used pc. When sent the PC worked perfectly. BTW just a
Computer, Keyboard, and mouse. No Monitor was sent.
Any way, he can not get any of his monitors to work with the PC. He has two
functioning monitors, verified with other PCs in his home.
He gets the yellow stand by light on the monitor when it is plugged into the
PC. He opened the PC to verify that the video card is seated. Which it
was,...it fact the small processor fan was running on board the card ...so
the card is being powered..
What are some of the possible resoultions to this problem?
Is it possible that his monitors will not support the video card?
One question I did not ask, was if there were any beeps when he attempts to
boot. He didn't mention it, so I assumed there was just the standard beep at
boot.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
PK

Only if they are like 10 year old plus VGA monitors.

Try a different video card.
