Hey all,

Essentially I have 2 monitors hooked up to my system via HDMI, one HDMI port is connected to the 1070 I have recently purchased, and one is plugged into the HDMI on the motherboard. When both are connected I usually get a black screen followed by a Windows 10 error. Is this just due to the strange nature of not running both monitors off my dedicated GPU?

If anyone needs any more information I would be glad to assist, but the error screen did not display a code. If it is any consolation the blue screen had a 🙁 on it. I read about an error code consisting of 0's but one never appeared.

Thanks.

I have looked around and apparently, it should be no issue.
