Try rolling back to a driver you know worked with DVI.
Does your monitor have an .inf or driver that you can install?

This is a really no-brainer, but it happened to me once so I'll throw it out there. My first LCD monitor had a button that would toggle between the DVI and VGA inputs, it wouldn't automatically switch. I floundered and flustered for an hour before I realized this and hit the button to switch the feed over to DVI. Perhaps a similar button was hit with yours? If not, and if you have some spares, I'd suggest trying a different monitor with a DVI port and seeing if the problem persists, and switching out the video card with a different one. I've had cards where only one output died, so it is definitely possible.

I do have an option to switch between DVI to VGA, but the LCD do that automatically, it's written on the screen when i turn it on.
i think its a problem with my video card's driver... when i remove them it's work... it's also works on ubuntu's live cd...
thanks anyway..
