My monitor has a DisplayPort, but reading on the internet everyone is having issues with DisplayPort on GTX 970 and GTX 980, so I'm kind of afraid it won't help. I'm 100% sure I'm not connecting dual-dvi to dvi, yes. I would be surprised if it did, because 1 minute before installing the new GPU I was using both of them with the old GPU and both worked fine. I have two adapters (my previous GPU had 2 DVI ports so I bought 2 adapters for my HDMI cables), and switching it doesn't seem to make any difference. In nVidia Control Panel, the second monitor is listed just as "digital monitor" and doesn't allow me to change anything, not even the resolution 3D settings, multi display/mixed gpu is set to "Multiple Display Performance Mode". If anyone has any idea about what I can do, it would be greatly appreciated (I can live with one monitor when I'm playing games, but for work I got a little addicted to having two monitors to organize my windows)

If I keep only the DVI monitor connected, when windows prompts to enter the password the picture disappears and I can't see anything. The port itself is not faulty, because at boot I see the boot screen and windows loading screen on the monitor connected through the DVI port after windows loads and prompts me to enter the password, instead, the DVI monitor gives me the "no signal" message and the HDMI monitor starts working. Oddly enough, browsing internet I found a ♥♥♥♥load of forums where people complained that the DP ports of the GTX 970 and 980 didn't work, and resorted to use the DVI port instead, my problem is about the DVI port. The two monitor have identical brand and model, they were bought at the same time. If I swap them, it's always the one attached to the DVI port that doesn't work. The other one is connected via the DVI port using a HDMI to DVI adapter. I have two monitors, with my previous GPU (Radeon HD 6990) they both worked fine with the GTX 980, only one works, the one connected via the single HDMI port. After a lot of troubling (involving updating the UEFI and installing other updates as well), it is finally working (and games look wonderful) BUT. I just installed a GeForce GTX 980 on my machine.
