Hi, I recently got dual monitors and when I turned on my PC today, both of them were off. I tried unplugging and plugging them back in and it fixed the older monitor. It's one I haven't used in a while but I bought an HDMI cable for it so I could have two screens.
My main monitor, the one I've been using since I bought this PC 2 years ago, didn't get fixed. I checked for loose cables and everything was plugged in fine. I restarted my computer just it case it was acting weird because I usually put my pc to sleep. Same thing, screen stayed black. I considered that it might be the screen's power cable or the DVI-HDMI cable I had on it. I switched my setup and stole the cables from the screen that was working fine. Nope, the screen's still black and the cables I thought were faulty work okay with the older monitor. So it seems the problem is my screen.
My PC detects the monitor and I can drag things in and out of the screen to my other one, but the display itself is black. The light on the power button of the monitor is fine; it's telling me the screen is on. The display is black and I can't figure out what could have happened from when I used it last night until now. All I did was put my PC to sleep and then go to bed.
The screen with the problems is a Sceptre, E225W-1920 22" LED 1080P Monitor. The one that's okay is from my old Dell computer. My computer is from CyberPowerPC. Processor is AMD FX-9590 Eight-core processor 4.70 GHz, 16.0 GB RAM. I'm running Windows 8.1. Thank you for taking your time to help me, this is my first time posting here. Let me know if I missed anything.
