If both monitors have done this, I would think it's your graphics card. I'm not 100% sure, but it would make more sense than having a monitor that was working before, now not and a brand new monitor not working either.

I'm guessing you don't have integrated graphics to plug the monitors into? Or do you only have integrated graphics?

 

Did you try the monitors with two different wires or the same wire?

 

Do you have another computer you can test your graphics card in?

 

Do you have another graphics card to test your computer with?

 

It could be the graphics card itself, the connection from the wire to the graphics card, the connection from the wire to the monitor, the wire itself, the connection from the graphics card to the motherboard, the motherboard itself...

The only thing that's most likely not the problem is the monitor itself.

I had this problem a few weeks ago. It was some kind of driver error for my nvidia graphics card. I eventually uninstalled the driver and downgraded to a more stable version.

Nvidia 320.49 drivers are no good, actually.. none of their new drivers are any good.

 

 

If you have updated your driver recently, I suggest going back to an older more stable version.

 

Hope this helps.

I'm using version 326.41 and it works fine...I have a 660Ti Overclocked Edition...

 

It's probably best to have it looked at professionally (since there's no way you could downgrade drivers without being able to see the screen) to see if someone can determine the problem before buying any more new equipment.
