Windows 8.1 (Monitor Signal) Problem

I have a certain issue. Ever since I had updated to Windows 8.1, my monitor says "No Signal" either when I restart my computer, or turn it off.
I am using a Geforce 650 TI graphics card. This issue is solved by simply booting with the default graphics card on the motherboard, and updating my geforce card (It's the driver update which is compatible with Windows 8.1) .
After updating, I will then insert the monitor cable back into the Geforce slot in the back, the PC then boots perfectly fine with no "No Signal " issues, however, whenever I decide to either turn my computer off or restart it, it reverts back to the same "No Signal" issue, basically leaving me doing the same thing over and over again just to use my Geforce card with the new update, which is said above (Updating the Geforce driver which is compatible with Windows 8.1)

This has been driving me absolutely crazy, and still have not been able to fix this issue, if somebody could please help me, it would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance!

ResEve, welcome to EightForums. What motherboard do you have. It might be a bios setting. Have you tried a different cable?

And yes I have used other cables, this issue has only started to happen after I had updated to Windows 8.1 .

I have seen Graphics cards go bad or are bad out of the box. The computer will have an onboard GPU. You need to set the bios so that the Graphics Card is the Primary display (Only Display) if you are using just one monitor. If using two monitors. Then go into the OS and decide which will be the 1st monitor, and which will be the 2nd monitor.

Also check to make sure that the card is properly seated. It could be that it is only partially seated in the slot. Or there can even be a hairball in there causing the issue.
