Problem description: 1 of my 3 monitors has stopped working. It was working fine when I left to go to dinner, and 2.5 hours later, its not. The backlight is on, as in I can tell its "lit up" even though it is only displaying a black screen. My PC still detects it as well - the Display Settings still acts like there is a 3rd monitor, and the mouse clearly has travel time when moving from the left monitor to the right (the center one is the one that isn't working). Attempted fixes: I tried turning the monitor off and on again. Turning it off changed nothing, but turning it back on caused some weird behavior - the other monitors flashed and started acting like I had added/removed a display and were "re-configuring" themselves to adjust. Meanwhile, the problem monitor flickered when coming back on, and I briefly saw the desktop wallpaper, before it settled back on "black but lit up screen". Additionally, I tried rebooting the PC. This process went smoothly, and during boot up the motherboard logo/boot image displayed on the problem monitor without issue, including the animated spinning thing during the loading process. However, as soon as it got to the part where you'd be on the Windows login screen, it was dark again. The Windows long screen did not appear, but was functioning - I could enter my password and log in. E: while waiting, I reinstalled the GeForce/graphics drivers, and selected the "clean install" option. It installed fine, no errors, but no change in the situation. Recent changes: None recently. -- Operating system: Windows 10 System specs:  Location: USA - Virginia I have Googled and read the FAQ: Yes Annath fucked around with this message at 00:34 on Oct 2, 2023 |

I'd run DDU: https://www.wagnardsoft.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=4699 and then try reinstalling the latest GPU drivers again.
