Cannot recover signal from PC if monitors had been turned off and on
I don't know how to phrase the issue I'm experiencing so I'll break it down into steps. I started experiencing this issue after formatting and reinstalling windows 7, all windows updates have been applied.
- Both monitors turned on.
- Turn PC on.
- Everything working fine.
- Turn both monitors off.
- Turn both monitors back on.
- No signal to monitors (I know the PC is working fine as file transfers had been completed)
- Even if I move mouse around press keyboard keys PC still doesn't send signal to monitors.
- Hard Reset PC (by pressing the reset button), everything is working again.
I've checked for;
- Windows power options
- Loose cables.
- Re-seat graphics card
- Re-seat ram
- Nvidia Driver update / reinstall.
I can leave the monitors on for hours and everything is fine but when I turn them both off and then on, the PC stops sending signal to the monitors.
