Garbled display on startup, need to start a few times for login screen!
Hi guys,
I am using a current-gen Mac Pro (quad-core 3.7GHz, 16GB RAM, 1TB hard drive), with three monitors - a 27" Thunderbolt Monitor, an older 23" Apple monitor, and an Acer monitor. All are connected to individual Thunderbolt ports.
I've been having an issue recently where when I start up the Mac Pro, two of the three displays show odd coloured patterns instead of the startups screen. The third shows garbled text. I am unable to log on - the only option is to power off the Mac Pro, restart it, and hopefully after a few attempts at this, the displays show up correctly and I can log in successfully.
I've included an image of what I am seeing when this problem occurs.
I would be grateful for any troubleshooting tips, or suggestions. If you think I might have a faulty Mac Pro (with dud graphics card), I would be keen to know that too.
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer!
Cheers,
Mike
