    You are getting no signal because the monitor cannot handle the resolution you set Windows to run at.

    If possible, re-connect the last monitor you had that was working, boot into Windows, and set the resolution as low as possible (800x600 or 640x480, whichever is available), then shut-down Windows. Then connect your new monitor and it should be able to boot into Windows.

    Good luck.
