Windows 10: Windows Detects my monitor but doesn't display to it after full reset.

Hello all!


I recently reset my computer and now my monitor won't display anything, despite both my pc and my monitor recognizing they are connected to each other. I have done a test and found out the monitor is fine, but its windows that won't display. I am using an NVIDIA GPU and have downloaded all of the drivers needed to my knowledge.

Windows 10 doesn't detect my second monitor

Hey, I'm having a hard time with this monitor that wont be detected by windows and I've been working on this for days. The monitor already was detected awhile back, but a couple days ago I reset my PC and I tried to connect them both and .... nothing. I've
tried installing new drivers, uninstalling, rolling back, but nothing seemed to do the trick. When I would disconnect my main monitor and try to use the second monitor by itself it will boot up and right after the windows 10 logo pops up it will show "DVI"
then "VGA" on the top right while in black screen and then it will say "No signal." I know it can be detected because I ran safe mode and it worked perfectly fine, but when I try to connect them both and restart my pc it just boots up and black screens and
says "No signal" and then it switches to the other monitor that works fine and puts that monitor at a black screen aswell and only thing I can do is move my mouse. When I use my main monitor individually it works, but I can't use the second monitor individually
for some dang reason. I used to use that second monitor as my main monitor awhile back, but know all of a sudden it doesn't want to work. Any suggestions?
