Hey guy just got the Mobo, I'm coming from a Sabertooth 990fx. I have Windows 8 istalled and my ati drivers installed but for some reason 1 of my 3 monitor will not turn one once it gets to the windows login screen. It works fine during post, so I know it not the video card. I did not have this problem with my Sabertooth 990fx so I was wondering if there is a setting in the bios that will stop the hdmi monitor from turning on when it gets to windows. my specs are

DVI, mini display and HDMI, all work except the monitor connected to HDMI. the only time the hdmi monitor displays anything is when the computer post, once it gets to windows it turns off

if they're all the same they *should* have come with all the cables you needed....unless DP cables have to be bought seperately?
