DisplayPort and Dell 2408WFP

I purchased monitor 2408WFP last evening. I use Sonic 9600 GT (with 174.74 Nvidia driver) and to connect to monitor I decided to use DisplayPort. After conect the cable to monitor and videoadapter I turn on computer. But monitor says me "No DisplayPort cable". What I did incorrectly? 

After changed connection to DVI I received a picture. All was good. But DisplayPort didn't work. :womansad:

Give me please advice - what I can do?

Hello, Did you change the input on the monitor via the menu settings on the front of the monitor?

Hi,

could be possible that you used a low-quality adapter cable. At least there are still problems/incompatibilities with this DP technology and the used cables to connect display with graphic outputs...

Same problem with a Diamond HD5870 and 2408WFP.  No image via DispalyPort.  The monitor comes with a cable from Dell so I would hope it is good!  And here I was hoping to have a 3 monitor system.  Now I have to try to find another card and another monitor to isolate this mess....
