Using any adapters?

I tried the vga and the digital both had same results .. had to use an adapter for the digital.

have you tried using a different cable? the interface connectors could be the point of failure. either that, or the input interface of the monitor could be broken.

He said the displays work on his rig.

Yep even tried new cable on each monitor.. only thing I can think of to do is to replace the mobo.

Try pulling the ram and putting it back in. Sounds strange but it happened to me once. (obviously make sure it isn't plugged in when you do this) But sometimes the memory can mess things up.
