Monitor not showing display with Displayport sometimes? Really annoying! It seems to me to be happening at random times, however i guess everything has an explanation. I can often get it to work, by shutting off the PC and monitor, aswell as cutting the power completely. And then waiting a few minutes. At this point im like, it might work now! Doing this, also sometimes loads windows incorrectly and i'll have to restart my PC again. If that doesnt work, i have tried a couple of times to reset the CMOS, which has worked if i couldnt get a signal otherwise. I just find this very inconvenient, and ill also have to go through the whole shabang with my BIOS and then restart again, at which point im almost scared to not get a signal again! I dont know why this happens, but since it usually works by cutting power and waiting, or else by resetting CMOS, im guessing it's not the normal stuff to do with loose wires etc. What to do? Thanks in advance!

Update your post to include full system hardware specs and OS information.

PSU: make, model, wattage, age, condition (original to build, new, used, refurbished)?

Disk drive(s): make, model, capacity, how full?

All attached peripherals.

Look in Reliability History/Monitor and Event Viewer. Either one or both tools may be capturing some error codes, warnings, or even informational events just before or at the time of the "no signal".

Thank you very much. For now it works (i mean its only been less than 24h). I updated my BIOS using a USB flashdrive to update to the newest possible, even though its not that new, i guess they dont make updates to this model anymore. I also clean installed my GPU drives using DDU. For now it works!
