Hello,
GPU: GTX 1060 6GB
I've been experiencing random occurrences where one of my monitors displays "Displayport No Signal." At first, I assumed a problem with my GPU or cables, but after updating the graphics card, the issue persisted. I experimented with cables and ports, even swapping them between monitors, but it only worked when moving the display to another monitor while the other remained inactive. Once I switched to Windows 11 Display Settings, the dropdown changed from "Show only on 1" to "Extend these displays," which resolved the problem. However, later I encountered an NVIDIA graphics update that seems to be triggering this again. Why are these updates causing this issue?

Use DDU to eliminate all GPU drivers (intel, AMD, and Nvidia) in Safe Mode, after that put the newest GPU driver from Nvidia's support page manually in an elevated command, such as right-clicking the installer and selecting Run as Administrator.

I've observed that NVIDIA sometimes fails to retain specific configurations following a driver update. The multi-monitor setup could be responsible.
