Windows 10: How do I connect my monitor cable to my Dell Optiplex 9020

I recently purchased a Dell Optiplex 9020 mini Tower running Windows 7. When I plugged my VGA monitor cable into the slot in the back of the PC the monitor came up with a message that said this PC is using an add-in Graphics card and the VGA cable won't work on this PC.At the back of the PC there&n

You All-In-One is similar to a laptop with no dedicated video card. Your display adapter would be your Intel processor, not a dedicated Nvidia video card. You have not provided enough information to determine whether this is a hardware fault, a driver fault, or a DirectX or other OS issue. You might consider a USB-based monitor or USB docking station with a monitor to attempt to get a viewable screen while in Windows. This may give you more control or might be a usable permanent hardware workaround if you are unable to resolve the issue. Since you can get in through TeamViewer, I suggest you install the following updates to see if anything changes:

1. Dell Optiplex 9020 AIO BIOS update [dell.com]

2. Dell Optiplex 9020 AIO Intel 4xxx series display drivers [dell.com]

If your monitor works outside of Windows (proves the monitor itself is not dead), you might also consider resetting your BIOS settings to factory default. This may or may not occur with a BIOS update.

Unfortunately, a monitor won't work as we use these systems for security, this one is located in a different part of the country to our office so we can only work remotely on it.

I have already performed a BIOS update and tried to install the graphics driver from the Dell site but I receive a notification that the system doesn't meet the requirements.

I can't think what else is causing this?
