I have an Amd Radeon HD 7850 Graphics card. When I plug in my hdmi into each individual Acer and Asus monitors, it works perfectly. However, when I try to plug in the DVI into the remaining monitor to dual screen, it cannot even detect a second monitor. Is there just a setting or something I am missing? I moved a month ago and before the move it worked perfectly, but now it cannot seem to detect the second monitor, through a DVI connection. Because this card only has 1 HDMI and 1 DVI (and a VGA - but forget that), and my monitors don't support mDP, I need this to work! I have already tried 2 different VGA cables and all possible monitor combinations. I have also tried re-installing Catalyst Control Center. HELP! :)

Do you get a picture if you boot with only the DVI port?

I do not. I just spoke with technical support and they said it was most likely a GPU hardware failure. :/
