Hi all,

Recently I've gotten myself and 144 hz BenQ xl2430t to accompany my 60 hz gl2450 and I have been encountering some issues in relation to the refresh rate.

Sometimes my monitor will start in the 144 hz mode I want when booting up my PC and sometimes it doesn't and I either have to change it or restart. Other times at any given point my monitor will just stop working, "No signal" will appear and after a quick reboot it will be back in 60 hz and wont let me select 144(or 100, 120) only 59 and 60.
One solution I have discovered is to unplug my secondary monitor (which is HDMI) and reebot the system I can then use 144hz and I just need to plug the second back in. However this is extremely inconvenient and I would just like it to operate smoothly.
