No power to monitors

I was running dual monitors with an Nvidia GTS 250 just fine for a few months.

Now, both of the monitors don't even power up. I have tried plugging them in to 3 other computers, but they just don't power up at all.

I have also plugged in 3 other monitors to my computer, but none of them were receiving anything from the computer. The monitors would turn on, but they would display nothing.

Any idea what is going on?

P.S. Yes, I have tried using different cords as well
 
Hmmm. You used three different monitors to your computer and did not work. You tried the monitors to 3 other computers and it did not work. Cords are okay. This is difficult to diagnose. Good luck.
 
Hi,

Do any of the monitors onboard menus come up when you hit their buttons? If they do, that means the monitor itself is working (if the screens were dead you couldnt see the menus). You said the 3 other monitors you tried turned on but then didnt receive anything from the computer. If you can get their menu's up from the buttons on the monitor themselves, it probably means its the video card, cable, or system board. You can try reseating the video card to see if maybe it has become slightly out of place in the socket. The 2 that didnt power on at all, did you try plugging them into a different electrical socket or different power strip?
