My problem..

I have two monitors. Running Windows 10.
My main monitor (primary in nbc) is on display port. Secondary on dvi.

When booting.. My.. The dvi takes control and the computer boots off the second monitor.

I've searched for solutions.
One that half works is to disable (or set to auto) CSM in the bios.

Then.. Computer starts to boot on my main monitor, But, I get an error telling me to check my CSM settings in my bios.

Thought I only needed csm if I was running an old version of Windows..??

Any solution for this??

Contact the card vendor, it may just be that the DVI port is looked before the DP one for monitor detection.

When you say "boots off the second monitor" you just mean the BIOS shows there right? It's not really an issue, I get that all the time with systems, once Windows takes over you can set the main display to something else.

Or, just swap the monitor locations on the desk or what ports they use.
