My computer monitor keeps going on black screen

I have connected a laptop Asus TUF gaming, an HP G5 docking station and two LG Ultragear QHD Gaming monitors via Displayport cables. Everything is only a couple months old.

It worked fine at first and now it doesn't work at all. As soon as I close the laptop, while nothing should happen when I close the lid, 1 monitor goes black. As soon as I start a game, the other monitor also goes black or the screen of my laptop goes black. When I connect my gf's laptop, all monitors work just fine, even when the laptop is closed.

    Check your laptop's BIOS/UEFI for any display or graphics settings that might influence external display behavior.
