First, PC specs:
Ryzen 5 5600X
16GB DDR4 @ 3200
MSI B550M MAG Mortar WIFI
XFX Speedster SWFT 210 AMD Radeon™ RX 6600 XT
Acer Predator XB3 1080p 144HZ via DP
Long story short - PC developed an issue when I came home yesterday - GPU does not display via DP1 & 2 when first powered on (VGA error indicator light stays on from the motherboard) after some time and will only display if you power on when connected to DP3; When it displays via DP3, DP1 & 2 start to work normally - (Once it starts working, the VGA error light is now always on during POST ( the only error light on) and turns off when booting - this never happened before).
Long story from when I came home:
- First boot up, displayed normally to the lock screen. When I returned to my desk, no display, monitor wasn't waking up.
- Restarted, VGA LED indicator lights up (and stays on) on the motherboard - No display.
- Same on DP2, it only displayed when connected to DP3 (the VGA LED on motherboard is on during POST but turns off when booting)
- In windows, I noticed my refresh rate was off, and was given a "Windows replaced this driver" when I launched Radeon Relive.
- To be safe, I DDUed and reinstalled the drivers.
- I then tried DP1 and DP2, everything worked as normal, just as before.
However.
- This morning when I powered it on, the VGA LED was on - No display from DP1 and DP2
- Tried DP3, it worked and I was able to get into windows. But, once it displays via DP3, DP1 and DP2 start to work normally when you connect the monitor through those ports.
- The drivers didnt have any issues this time.
- Once I get it to display, the VGA LED on the motherboard remains on during POST and turns off when booting (When the MSI logo appears ) - Have shutdown and powered on multiple times, this continues to happen, it did not do this before I started having this issue.
- The GPU works perfectly when displaying and I don't have any issues.
I have reseated the GPU and checked the power connection, but I still get the VGA LED during POST, however it turns off half way through booting. To me, it seems to be a time based issue - happens when the PC is turned off over a long period of time.
Any thoughts on his issue guys? Help would be much appreciated.
PS- I still have warranty with Wootware, but I don't want to sit without a GPU for the whole holiday.
