Can we do this?

Hello
Can we remove & plug-in the VGA socket of my monitor into the back-port of graphic card installed on the Mobo, while cpu is running (and PC is ON)?
Will that affect any part (MB or monitor or CPU) in any way?
Can it cause power issues or sparking or frying (as they call it)?

Thanks

Yes you can plug the monitor in while the computer is on. No, it will not do anything hazardous.

Thanks . What about plugging it off? you forgot about that!
Also does this rule ok with DVI (all versions) and HDMi ports also?
Thanks
