Question Is the monitor bad or some else.

[P0tluck94]

Today after playing on the computer for several hours I got up turned around and noticed that my secondary monitor was off but my primary monitor was still on, everything that was on the secondary monitor like hwinfo and YouTube had switched over to my main monitor, I went over and moved my mouse and I couldn't get the secondary monitor to come on, I restarted the computer and the monitor came on and works fine so far, so I'm curious if the monitor is going to bad or if it's something else, i don't necessarily need a second monitor but it's good to have so I can watch things while I play games but if it's something else I can't afford to fix it.

When posting a thread of troubleshooting nature, it's customary to include your full system's specs. Please list the specs to your build like so:
CPU:
CPU cooler:
Motherboard:
Ram:
SSD/HDD:
GPU:
PSU:
Chassis:
OS:
Monitors:
include the age of the PSU apart from it's make and model. BIOS version for your motherboard at this moment of time.

Can you recreate the issue? How old are the monitors?

I haven't tried to re create the issue as I'm afraid it'll mess other things up

So I'll kind of go into more depth of what happened, I was playing zombies, I was streaming with OBS open on my secondary, monitor with YouTube playing songs, hwinfo monitoring temps and obs, I shut down obs and youtube, got up and walked away from my computer, I then noticed about 2-3 minutes later that the secondary monitor (asus) was off and hwinfo changed from the secondary monitor over to my primary, I went over I hit enter on the keyboard o moved the mouse to wake up the screen thinking that's what happened but it didn't work, the power light on my secondary monitor was not white like normal it was red which is the color when it's off, so I rebooted the computer and everything booted up fine, then I was worried because I'm disabled and I can't afford to fix things so after that happened I just shut the computer down.
