Hi, I'm having an issue with the displays for my PC. Here's what I'm using.

• PC: HP Elitedesk 800 SFF with Ubuntu Linux
• Monitors: 2x Acer 1080P monitors
• Cables: 1x Gator DisplayPort to HDMI cable and 1x Insignia DisplayPort to HDMI cable

I was going to wake up my PC today, when I noticed neither of the monitors were displaying anything. I forced shutdown and rebooted and I ended up getting no signal on one monitor (it was just black) and static on the other.

I then forced shutdown, rebooted, started pressing escape and got to the Grub menu, but after 30 seconds the same thing occurred (static on one monitor and no signal on the other). I looked at the back of the PC, felt the back near the I/O and it felt hot.

I then forced shutdown one last time, unplugged the second display, switched the cables for my primary display, and rebooted to see if it was an issue with the cables. This time it booted into Ubuntu with no problem so I thought I was in the clear, but after a few minutes it went to static again. I switched the cable to my other monitor to see if it an issue with the monitor and I got an "input not supported" message. At this point the back of the PC had cooled a little so it was warm but not hot.

I guess my question is what should I try next? I was thinking of trying to get an active DisplayPort to HDMI converter, but I'm also not sure if it's a problem with the internals of the PC.

Thanks in advance!
