Hello, I'm having an issue regarding resolution at the UEFI/BIOS screen. The issue is that the display resolution is incorrect. The video card I am using is the Gigabyte 680 GTX. About 20-25% of the screen is "Hanging Over" the border of the monitor. When I originally turned on the computer I had it plugged into the top port of the video card and I had a full screen display, picture perfect. I ran into an issue and I had to reset the cmos. Upon resetting the CMOS my video card was no longer displaying video in UEFI from the top DVI port, so I swapped to the bottom and that's immediately when the issue has occured. I have been unable to get the top port working in UEFI, or get full view again. Please let me know if anyone has had this issue or has any idea what may have happened. I have the following components:

Phenom 1090T
Asus Crosshair Formula Z (Brand New)
EVGA P2 1000W Power Supply (Brand New)
16GB G Skill Memory DDR3-1600
500GB Samsung SSD.
Gigabyte GTX 680 4GB (Brand New)

I tried flashing the bios and resetting the CMOS several times.

I have resolved my own issues. I swapped PCI-E ports and had the same issue. The top video output would not work but the bottom would. I found a 8800 GTS and slapped it in and had the exact same problem. Only one of the DVI outputs would work. That meant that it had to be a motherboard issue. I sat there wondering if there was anything I did wrong. It occurred to me that I had only held the flash button down for 3 seconds, as I've been told several times. The solution came upon holding the button for 10 seconds, which seemed to have resolved all my issues. The motherboard is now supporting the GPU properly and all video ports are working from BIOS. I was worried I would have had to send the motherboard or GPU back, but all is well now.
