Hi. I have an XPS 8940 (and really love it!). I have a question about swapping the primary monitor from DisplayPort to HDMI in UEFI/BIOS. I have the HDMI monitor on my desk where I can get the higher resolution, and my TV is set up on the DisplayPort with 1980 x 1080. However, upon boot, it's the TV that's the primary and the HDMI as the secondary. The system has the UHD 630 Integrated Graphics chip. And, I also have an i7 CPU (in case that matters). I've seen YouTube videos that show how to do this with older BIOS, but I can't seem to find settings that looks like that on my UEFI machine. When I do get into the BIOS screen and select Video, it only gives me a choice of Auto or Intel Integrated Graphis. I don't see a way to swap the ports. Any suggestions?
TIA
Len
(Quick Note: I have an HDMI Cable running from the TV to a DisplayPort adapter going into the DisplayPort port on the back of the tower. I don't currently have a DisplayPort cable. "If" I simply get a DisplayPort to DisplayPort cable, would that allow me to get 2K on my 2K Viewsonic Monitor, and allow me to use the TV on the HDMI Port?)
