Just did a new build consisting of:

Mobo H67MA-E35 B3
CPU Intel i5-2500 3.3 Ghz
Mem 8GB DDR3 1333MHz
Win7 64bit

I am not getting an output signal from either the HDMI or the DVI-D.  The VGA works fine.

I flashed the Mobo BIOS to E7680IMS v11.6 and installed the newest driver for the graphics on the CPU to version 8.15.10.2361

In the BIOS I have the graphics set to:
Initiate Graphics Adapter (IGD)
Integrated graphics share memory (128)
DVMT memory (maximum)
IGD multi-monitor (enabled)

Any ideas on what to do next?  Thank you

Sorry.  I neglected to provide this bit of information.

PC Monitor. AOC F22.  It has VGA & DVI.

When there is no video signal getting to the monitor, the power button stays red.  The boot process is fine and windows starts, just no video until I plug in the VGA.

Thanks

Please check the DVI cable against these in this link and see the variations in DVI cables  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_Visual_Interface

If you have a second monitor with a VGA input, try booting with both VGA and DVI outputs attached, then try configuring multiple displays in Windows and setting the DVI monitor as your desktop.

Bernhard: I'll check my cable when I get home and report my findings.

T_MaP:  No other monitor.  Just this one.

Thanks for your quick responses on this

According to Wiki, the cable I have is the "DVI-D (Single Link)"

The 1 pin on the side with 2 groups of 9 pins with nothing between them

This is the time that some testing would be ideal. If you have a dual link cable, try that. If you have a HDMI to DVI converter adapter it is also worth testing, i.e. attach the adapter to the monitor and then use a HDMI cable from the PC to the monitor. It would help MSI if more users with this problem can report their findings, as I believe that there may be a problem of some sort with the DVI/HDMI output, going by the amount of reports. To pinpoint the problem though will require all different kinds of connections and cables to be tested first, and additionally also the display monitor in use, i.e. just monitor or TV.

Thanks Bernhard.  I will go purchase a DVI-D Dual Link cable today and try that.  I had no idea there were different types of DVI cables.  Speaking of not knowing, how can I tell the difference between an HDMI cable for 1.3 and not get a 1.4?  I would like to try that output too.

Thanks

Well, the issue ended up being the DVI female connection on the AOC-F22 monitor.  I could not find the DVI-D dual link cable anywhere.  I bought a DVI-D to HDMI cable and it worked!  The HDMI out works as well! 

So, yesterday I purchased a new 24" LED monitor.  Sweet!!!

Thanks again Bernhard for all your input. I have learned a few things.

Glad you got your issue sorted out. I'm am a little confused with the explanation of your solution.

You monitor has only VGA and DVI inputs. Your mainboard has VGA, DVI, and HDMI. Correct so far?
You bought an HDMI to DVI cable, which solved your problem, but your problem was a faulty female DVI on the monitor?
How is this possible? The only way that cable would even fit is going HDMI on mainboard to DVI on monitor, but you stated the port didn't work.

Or was this all done with the new monitor after you found out the DVI port was broken on the old one?
Have you tried the old monitor on a different system to check if it's the DVI port?

The reason I ask all this is if I'm wondering if your issue was really a broken port on monitor, or the MSI display bug that is effecting so many core iX H and Z chipset boards.
