Make this procedure should be able to be absolutely every user, because the monitor is one of the main parts of the computer itself.
The first thing to find out is which cable will be connected and determine whether they are suitable for computer connectors. The most common is only three connection options: via a VGA, HDMI cable, DVI-D.
How to connect a monitor to a computer - cable types
VGA.
Most analog monitors, LCD and plasma TVs and even some DVD players are connected through this cable.
As a rule, the type of socket (input) is painted in blue and has a typical hole for it, built in three rows. It is recommended to use the cable first if the video outputs are located on the video card.
VGA is equipped with screws for fastening, twisted with their fingers. 
HDMI
It is a replacement of analog connection standards and can transmit digital video signals in high resolution, and also supports the transmission of multi-channel audio data. 
DVI-D.
As a rule, the connectors are located on the motherboard and have a characteristic white color, in contrast to VGA, painted in blue. Also equipped with screws for fastening. 
How to connect a monitor to a computer
Having understood with what cable and the connector we are dealing, the whole process is reduced to elementary:
- Turn off the computer.
- Connect one end of the cable to the monitor connector.
- The other end is connected to the output on the computer. If you have two identical sockets on top and bottom, then connect to the top, as this is the output of the video card.
- We can include a computer.
Installing additional drivers is not required. Windows system will do it yourself. It is recommended to connect cables that have the same "plugs" on both sides. As an example, VGA-VGA, it is necessary for a more reliable signaling. As they say, without loss.
If you are using a laptop, and the monitor does not work, use the "Fn + F1-F9" key combination, where F1-F9 is a sequential set of keys F from 1 to 9, which is designed to enable the additional monitor mode.
