Just picked up an MSI GTX 1060. Coming from an R9 390 that I uninstalled a while back along with its drivers. I've been using the onboard Intel 530 graphics of my Asus Z170-AR since. I have two monitors, an HP Envy 32 over DP and a cheap Asus over HDMI. Both were working fine on the onboard adapter, but now with the 1060 installed, I only get an output over the HDMI monitor. I cannot keep the DP monitor on at all after Windows loads. I've tried uninstalling the drivers and only running my HP monitor over DP and that works okay until I plug in the Asus over HDMI, then DP drops off. It refuses to detect the DP monitor in display settings. I've tried various DP ports with no joy. What gives?

Did you use DDU after uninstalling the R9 390 drivers?

I did not. I played around a bit more and installed even newer drivers from 1/29 - previous drivers were from MSI from earlier in January. Still nothing, but then I swapped DP outputs (again) on the card and the monitor lit up and it seems fine now. Hopefully this was just some weird fluke.
