Monitor No Longer Detected

I made a thread in the Tech forum, but this one seems like it gets more foot traffic. Yesterday I updated the drivers on my Radeon HD 6750 and when it was installing it suddenly stopped recognizing my second monitor. I tried a system restore and that still didn't help. The monitor that's plugged directly into the video card works fine, and because I have older monitors, the other one was plugged into the port in the blue area seen below: 3f805ad7-d9f2-4f0e-b644-d297c0a9ea2c.jpg

Either monitor works when plugged into the video card's port, but not when plugged into the blue area's port.

    Why not just plug both monitors into the video card?

    If your video card does not have a VGA port, it likely came with a DVI->VGA adapter you could use (if the card has two DVI ports).

    The card has one DVI port and two HDMI ports. Both Monitors are VGA so I'm using an adapter to get the one monitor to work.
