My monitor is a Predator X27. My GPU is a GTX 1080 ti. Ive got a second monitor that’s an old 1080p Samsung which works fine. Ive tried updating everything. Nothing seems to help. I don’t know how to fix it at this point. I think it’s a GPU issue but that’s all I can think of. Ive also reset my BIOS 3 times with different configurations and that didn’t help

I fixed it by enabling CSM in bios boot settings but if there’s a better way let me know

hmm

#

possible on boot it is defaulting to use integrated graphics/ a different display

#

try changing that

#

using csm is definately not reccomended

viscid narwhal
#

Yeah I tried that several times too with no dice

autumn flicker
#

bios update?

viscid narwhal
#

Tried that too

#

Bios update…gpu update…windows update…I considered reinstalling windows

#

Reset the cmos twice

#

gpu in the top slot?

This has happened lots to me on various machines. Sometimes the display isn’t updated fast enough. Have you tried disabling fast boot? Also, if you can still spam delete and get to the BIOS menus, I don’t really think it’s much of a problem

viscid narwhal
#

Fast boot didn’t help either, nor did spamming

Reset cmos

#

Oh

quaint abyss
#

Maybe you did turn on fast boot

viscid narwhal
#

all suggestions i read said to disable it

quaint abyss
#

Sometime on some boards you need to remove the cmos and bridge two pins to reset it

#

Atleat on my Aorus Board I need to do this

viscid narwhal
#

mine is brand new so i doubt this one needs it

#

its got a cmos reset on the back

quaint abyss
#

Sometimes you do sth wrong and you don’t realise it

#

I swear there an option in windows to enter bios

#

@viscid narwhal

viscid narwhal
#

there is

#

but that doesnt work either

quaint abyss
#

So you can’t enter the bios ?

#

Do you get like an splash screen from your mb

Maybe also try the hdmi port on the

#

Mb

viscid narwhal
#

it skips the splash screen and boots into windows

#

that works but i want to use displayport

quaint abyss
#

Yeah you can set it in bios for sure

#

To use your normal gpu output

viscid narwhal
#

which doesnt work either

quaint abyss
#

Well

viscid narwhal
#

ive tried every thing i saw online besides changing my gpu

quaint abyss
#

Could you power cycle your pc and spam delete and f2?

viscid narwhal
#

no

quaint abyss
#

?

viscid narwhal
#

it doesnt work

quaint abyss
#

Ah well

#

So with csm you get into bios without you don’t ?

viscid narwhal
#

basically yeah

#

the only way i can without csm is to have my second monitor plugged in or my main monitor on hdmi

quaint abyss
#

Ok and your sure fast boot is off?

viscid narwhal
#

pretty sure but ive disabled it like 3 times

quaint abyss
#

Try unplugging one Monitor

#

And check if it works

viscid narwhal
#

ive done that too

#

both, just my second, just my main

#

using just my second one works

quaint abyss
#

Put one in gpu and one in the board

You will have to go into your BIOS and define those pauses. Otherwise anytime you want to boot into BIOS or do a boot override you will need to hold Left-shift down while clicking restart.

There is also supposed to be a command to restart into firmware but I've never gotten it to work.

oh yeah you can do the windows boot into bios thing
