Second monitor not working after clean Windows 7.

About 2 weeks ago I got my new SSD, was extremely excited and decided to install it.
This went without any problems, installed a clean windows on the SSD.
Updated the drivers, everything was good.

Until I realized my second screen wasn't working anymore.
The weirdest about this all, is that it works fine in the BIOS.
When it has been boot up, it says "No Signal".


In this picture you can see it works fine in the BIOS

It also works fine on boot-up..

But then we get to the part where it all goes wrong!

As you can see this is very odd..
They are both connected to my Video-Card.

My main-screen that is working is a DVI-D to HDMI.
The second not working screen is DVI to DVI.

As of my PC specs:

CPU: Intel® Core™ i7-4790K @4.00GHz
CPU Cooling Fan: Noctua NH-D14
Motherboard: MSI Z97 Gaming 5
RAM: 8 GB Ram
Video Card: AMD Radeon HD 7800 Series
Power Supply: 750 WATT

Windows 7 Ultimate 64-Bit OS

Thanks for the help in advance!

Did you go into display properties and set it up? Also make sure main monitor is set for 1 and secondary set for 2.

What happens when main screen is dvi and second screen is hdmi? Have you tried a different adapter? You said you did a fresh install, and unless you go into display properties and set them up how you want them, it won't show anything inside windows.

Did you install all the latest drivers from the manufacturer's websites, rather than letting windows get universal drivers for everything?

Have you tried swapping the outputs for the two monitors?
