Computer display issue...need help

I have a TV as a second display on my desktop. It was working fine a few hours ago but now there is no signal from the desktop to the TV. Hard connectors are fine, re-booting didn't help...now what? I have an NVIDIA card in the desktop.

TIA

Have you checked to see if the TV went bad? Tried a different cable?
See if NVIDIA has a self-checking program in the software drivers.

Can you drag another TV over to see if it works with it?

Are your display properties still referencing the external/secondary monitor/tv ?

Do you use a remote with the TV?

Maybe you bumped the input select button.

Or the mirror display on your PC keyboard?

I should get an assist since I suggested plugging in a different TV to see if it was the TV and not the computer.
