    If no logo or anything when you boot it sounds like you have a graphics chip problem. Should get something at power on

    First, try to make sure the screen is actually broken. Although it's possible, it's unlikely that both GPU and the monitor fail at the same time. If the monitor works with other GPU, then it's most certainly the GPU (can also be caused by the connection between GPU and the monitor or PSU to the GPU).
    If you're talking about using dual monitor, make sure you actually set the display to extended or duplicate. Try pressing WINDOWS + P. Sometimes, even if you connect a second monitor, it will stay off until you project something to the second screen (e.g. duplicate, extend, or 2nd screen only).

    Try doing the same in other monitors or TV you have, you never know if the problem is actually the cable.
