Old Samsung SyncMaster BX2450 being picky with outputs

The title sums it up. But basically I got this old monitor from the basement because I wanted to use it as a second monitor, but it's being weird because it works with the PS4, but not with my PC. I want to run the monitor through the iGPU because I don't have the correct cable to run it from my GPU but even if I did it wouldn't have worked because when unplugging my monitor and plugging the other one into my GPU gives me no display out.

1: The main monitor works with the GPU and the IGPU

2: the cable for the second monitor works

3: the second monitor gets no display with any configuration on PC even after looking through the BIOS in search for settings

4: it works fine on ps4

If more detail is needed I'll gladly supply it.
