I used the removal utility and reinstalled everything nvidia which didn't work. However then I accidentally changed the contrast setting in dell display manager and now everything is fine.
For future references, on my Dell UP2715K with Windows 10 and Nvidia GTX 980, I was able to solve this problem by installing the newest version of Dell Display Manager and adjusting the contrast within the application. The UP2715K driver may need to be installed. But I do not believe it is necessary. System restore and changing active drivers changed nothing, as well as resetting monitor settings.
What specific computer model? What specific GPU video card? What video out ports are on the GPU video card? What video out port are you using from the GPU video card to what video in port on the monitor? What cable are you using to attach the GPU video card to the monitor? What operating system? What resolution are you using?
This does not sound like a monitor fault because some modes do not show the issue. It sounds like the video card is failing to produce the two 2560x1440 tiles side by side in all modes. Test all modes using one cable at 4K2K 3840x2160 60Hz, two 1920x1080 tiles side by side. Same issue?
I tested it with a mini-dp to full dp cable and my Dell XPS 12 laptop and no modes had that error. I updated the driver for my gtx 960 but the error still occurs.
