Fingers crossed for you.
My upgrade on the Crapstormer went mostly fine, it just kept switching displays during the install. Wanted to make my TV primary, so I had to keep changing the input on the TV to click confirmations and such during setup. I finally just unhooked the HDMI cable during one of the reboots.
I had also previously been running both the GTX 970 and the integrated graphics. The former powered the monitor, and the latter ran the TV. That had been working so well for me! The iGPU (HD 4600) is more than enough to render whatever I was playing in Kodi, and I could play games on the monitor at the same time.
But that doesn't work very well anymore so I now have both on the GTX 970. I think it's probably just in need of an Intel driver update but I can't be bothered to mess with it yet. Everything else is working so well on this computer I kind of just want to leave it be.
