Ugh, DVI ports no longer work for some reason

I'll crosspost from this thread on the AMD forums just to save a little time:

Welp I have this problem too now. I shut my eyefinity machine down, moved it from my office to my house, plugged it all back in and both DVI monitors get no signal but DP does. It was time for a wipe anyway so I wiped the drive and clean installed Win7 but still no go. The telling part to me is that they don't even light up when booting up, no BIOS post or anything. That takes it completely out of the windows realm and into a hardware issue.

I eventually found my way to this article but I'm hoping for some easier fix before I go editing EDID's and stuff which sounds slightly dangerous:

Has anyone gone through this or an easier method and been able to fix this?

What kind of monitor?

Oh sorry, 3x Dell P2210H's.

Also I moved my DP cable to one of the other monitors and it came right on, so it does look like it's one of those screwed up DVI port issues scattered around if you google. I'm just surprised it can happen that easily, just by being powered down and moved.

I realize this is more of a video card issue in my case I think, sorry. If anything this can help people find these issues quicker.
