Monitor no output (through HDMI to DVI adaptor)

I bought the pine64 2GB version, than I burn the 'Debian Linux Jessie with Mate GUI Image' on the SD card according to the wiki page.
After powering the board, there is nothing on PC monitor, no action, no output. The system boots fine, serial console by EXP connector works, SSH by 'Putty' works.

Please can you advice me what's wrong? My monitor doesn't have HDMI but have DVI. 
Yes;  with that monitor use the hdmi-->vga adpater plug that is carried by the pine store;  I use the adapter with my VGA | DVI  Samsung monitor and works very well.  This will not work on the older monitors that have ONLY vga and are 3:4. 
It does work well with the VGA DVI monitors ( wide screens ) that are LCD flat panels ( either LG or Samsung ).



Note:  the hdmi-->DVI cables DO NOT work with these monitors;  however,  the hdmi-->vga adapter plug does work... then just standard vga cable from there ( vga both ends ).

Note2:  also,  I want to commend you for verifying 'yourself' that your machine is in fact booting by using the serial console ( serial TTL usb bridge cable ) and then ssh to access the machine even though the hdmi interface is not working yet.   And, I want to emphasize to everyone else that when the pine board apparently does not boot ( this is the cause right here, the hdmi video isn't working but the board really is booting up! )

Note3:   moved and pinned thread in  HDMI Port;
