I just built my first PC and everything is working as intended and then suddenly when I turn on the PC or wake from sleep, monitors remain black, but all my peripherals and computer is on or I assume they're on as all the LED lights are on.

Turning either monitors on/off does nothing, sometimes if I reconnect the monitor cables (DP 1.2 & HDMI 1.4) it works but most of the time it does nothing. I have to reboot it again to try and get anything to show up on screen. Is this a driver issue? Windows 8.1 issue? How to fix?

pirated versions are generally activated by a file that look like a trojen virus, if there is an antivirus in your system, it try to shutdown that program and may cause such an error. uninstalling antivirus may be helpful or you have to reinstall os.
