Hi Guys,
 
First post here so sorry if it's in the wrong section! (Also note I have now solved but wanted to know why)
Yesterday I got my 1080 upgrade through the step up program, I installed and booted up but got no signal to my monitor, just a blue screen. After a few minutes thinking I did the following:
Booted to safe mode - worked fine, uninstalled previous drivers (From evga 1070 FTW), rebooted, worked fine, installed drivers, rebooted and blue screen again (Latest driver 338.?)
Long story short I had to disable my IGPU otherwise I just couldn't get a signal. (EDIT: disabled in device manager, didn't make a difference when done on the MoBo)
Now I don't mind this but I've never had to before, the 1070 was fine with IGPU enabled.
 
has anyone else had this?
 
Specs
Asus p8z77 deluxe
evga 1080 SC Gaming 8GB Factory
Corsair vengeance 8gb DDR3 OC'd
Corsair 750w PSU
Samsung 850 SSD
Sandy Bridge I7 OC'd to 4.3ghz
 
Thanks in advance

    A solid blue screen, or a blue screen of death? If a blue screen of death... sounds like a driver conflict.

    @Sajin,
     
    Solid blue, and unresponsive (won't shut down by pushing the power button like it normally would, have to force shutdown). I myself was thinking driver compatibility issue but, and correct me if I'm wrong here, don't the 1070 and 1080 use the same driver anyway? (When you download from evga it only says GTX 10 series driver, not card specific?
     
    @AHowes,
     
    Maybe that is true but, my MoBo supports something called lucidMVP which does some wizardry and somehow uses both the GPU and the IGPU, I'm not sure of exactly what it does but I've had this PC for 7 years and not once had to disable the IGPU for the discrete card to function. (Including the new 1080 it's had 4 GPU's over the years)
     
    This (Along with the 1070) are the first Evga cards I've ever had, I usually go Asus, but it's been impossible to find one since bitcoin mining became a big thing.
     
    Thanks

    Yes, the 1070 & 1080 both use the same driver. Updating your iGPU drivers would most likely fix the issue if you want to run both, however, I would highly recommend keeping the iGPU & LucidMVP disabled when running a dedicated graphics card.

    Thanks Sajin,
     
    I'm happy to keep it disabled as it offers no real benefit, I was more just curious as to why when I put the 1070 in it all just worked and didn't have to change anything but the 1080 gave me these issues.
     
    Anyway I guess it might help someone else if they get the same issue. Thanks for the replies.
