Hi Guys!
I've been using Eyefinity displaygroups for >6 months when suddenly the 3rd screen isn't working any more. I've tried connecting all 3 displays in different ports and with different cables, so I know all hardware is working properly. This problem occurred after coming back from a long vacation (possibly caused by a windows update?). When I unplug monitor 1 or 2, the 3rd one comes alive as if nothing happend. When I plug monitor 1 or 2 back in again, the 3rd monitor dies.
I have tried updating drivers to no avail (using the AMD settings tool), using driver sweeper. I've tried using different combinations of all the cables I have at my disposal (DVI-DVI, VGA-VGA, HDMI-VGA , HDMI-HDMI, DisplayPort-HDMI) but the result is the same. I don't have any active adapters, and this setup was previously working flawlessly for over 6 months.
Any idea what could be wrong? Many similar threads suggest buying active adapters, but I am annoyed by that, because my setup was working flawlessly before. If that ends up being the solution, would I need 1 active adapter or 3? Which product would you recommend?
I've included driver version and some more below, if that is any help

Thanks in advance!

Edit: Some threads online suggests lowering the resolution for each monitor to see if that will allow the 3rd one to awaken. I have tried this and it did not make any difference.

I have Asus HD7970 (which is ~3 years old) (4x DisplayPort, 2x DVI sockets)
3x BenQ GL2760H monitors (all of the connected via DisplayPort-HDMI-cables)
Windows 10
