My PC specs: - Motherboard: Asus Maximus V Gene - CPU: Intel Core i7 3770 - GPU: nVidia GeForce GTX 780 Ti - Monitor: SAMSUNG C27JG50QQI 27" 144Hz OS: - Arch Linux 5.3.7-arch1-1-ARCH I have to use DisplayPort connection, because my GPU can provide 144 Hz frequency only thru this connection. My problem is that I can't see anything on monitor until OS booted. But when GRUB loaded I can see black screen with backlight. Monitor works (power led not blinking), but it shows nothing. When OS loaded, everything works perfect. If I try to connect second monitor via HDMI, DP-monitor will sleep (power led is blinking) until OS booted; and on the second (HDMI) monitor I can see everything: BIOS, GRUB, etc. The problem manifests itself exclusively when connected via DisplayPort. Any other GPU interfaces works well. BIOS mode is UEFI and Legacy both enabled. Motherboard and GPU BIOS is default and I don't want to update them. I dont't need to change BIOS settings regulary, but I want to see GRUB menu. How can I try to configure GRUB to load any driver or special mode to fix this problem? Here is my current GRUB config: # # DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE # # It is automatically generated by grub-mkconfig using templates # from /etc/grub.d and settings from /etc/default/grub # ### BEGIN /etc/grub.d/00_header ### insmod part_gpt insmod part_msdos if [ -s $prefix/grubenv ];
