Do you mean no video on ultra wide screen monitor, but when you switch monitor to non ultra wide one, you get normal Windows video on screen? If yes the issue is not No POST, but No video display on new monitor. Try connecting via hdmi cable for a test.

Hey there,
I have this same problem, same Area 51 R2 box, with a 1060 in it. I do have an ultrawide 144hz monitor attached and two secondary screens also.
Current solution is unplug the ultrawide at boot, it then gets to windows login on my secondary screen and then I can plug back in and the ultrawide screen takes over fine at that point.
Haven't tried using a hmdi cable as suggested, but how would that help in the long run when I need a display port cable attached to the ultrawide to run at 144hz? Pretty sure the HDMI won't do that?
I get that swapping the hdmi is for testing purposes, but I'll mention that one of my secondary screens is running on a display port cable and boots fine into windows.
Basically looking for a solution so I can run the ultrawide on a Display Port cable.
Any ideas?
