I received a new monitor recently for my birthday, but it won’t allow me to enter BIOS when connected. Pressing delete during boot doesn’t trigger any action. When I switch to a different monitor as a secondary display, I can successfully boot into BIOS with both devices active. I’m trying to figure out what’s wrong but noticed some differences compared to the previous setup. The new monitor behaves oddly—changing its input makes it seem like it’s completely disconnected from my PC, causing brief blackouts that look like a new connection. The older monitor didn’t exhibit this issue. If this is just an unusual quirk I can’t resolve, I’m okay disconnecting it to access BIOS.

Motherboard: Asus Z97-AR
CPU: i5 4690K
GPU: GTX 1060 (6GB)
Monitor 1: Asus VG248QE via DVI-Dual Link (primary)
Monitor 2: Asus MG28U over HDMI 2.0 (secondary)

Appreciate your help!
