Ok. If I understand correctly, your second monitor is connected to your rtx 3050 graphics card via an hdmi-to-vga adapter and suddenly your got not picture on your second monitor. Is that right ?

You already tester to see if your graphics card still works. The next step is to test if your VGA monitor still works too. Can you plug it into another source like another computer, a blu-ray player, a game console ?

If the monitor still works, then it may be a bad cable or adapter. If the monitor does not work, then it is time to find another one. Repairing such an old monitor will probably cost more than the value of the monitor, even for basic repairs.

Good luck !

Use 3 different cables and adapter ... Same problem .... Used a DP to my main monitor works fine

Is your VGA monitor set to clone or expand your primary monitor ? If the resolution is set higher than the monitor can display, this may be the cause of the problem.
