Windows 10: Display not active

I have a 3 monitor set up running Nvidia GTX 1070 Windows 11, it's been working fine till this morning, I came on to it being blacked out and not active it is my main monitor. When I restart the BIOS and windows loading screen shows up on it, but as soon as windows boots into where I need to enter my password it stops working and switches to another monitor and it says that it is being detected but it is not active. I used different DPorts on my card to see if it was that but it happens no matter what, help?
