No display from HDMI

English Hardware
1

I have two monitors.
They were just working fine but suddenly HDMI one is just black now.
If I connect the HDMI monitor via VGA it works fine.

This happened before and I was only able to solve the problem by reinstalling OS.
Even changing the motherboard didn’t solve the problem.

I can provide more outputs.

If you connect both monitors to HDMI outputs what is then reported by xrandr?

My second monitor does not support HDMI.

So first monitor is connected via HDMI and second via VGA? Please show xrandr output with both monitors connected.

Which DE or WM are you using? What method do you use to configure your display positioning and/or orientation? If you try logging into another DE or WM instead, does the black persist?
