Recently built a computer and having an issue booting when doing a reset (ie. I go to windows and select "Restart") The only way for my screen to display is by doing a hard shutdown (hold power button on PC) and restarting that way.

After a soft restart I can see that my computer is on and functioning but nothing is being displayed on the screen.

After a hard reset everything works properly and I am able to use my computer.
