Log in loop when connected to HDMI TV..

Connor Price

I don't even know where to start with this one, or where to post this. If I connect my 4K LG TV through HDMI, I get a black screen, and then I'm suddenly back at the login screen. I put in my password, screen goes blank and up pops the log in screen again. If I disconnect the TV and connect to my monitor with Display Port, I can log in fine. The second I plug the TV back in I'm thrown back out and onto the login screen. This is driving me insane because I just don't know where to start. I've tried connecting to my monitor with HDMI rather than display port, and that works fine also. It's the second I plug the TV in that Windows starts to have a shit fit and send me in an infinite log in loop.

 

EDIT: Turns out it's the fucking AMD drivers that cause this, it works fine in safe mode so I DDU'd, restarted and started installing the drivers with the TV plugged in thinking that'd solve it. MID WAY THROUGH THE FUCKING INSTALL IT THREW ME OUT TO THE LOG IN SCREEN AND WOULDN'T LET ME LOG BACK IN. Anyone want an RX480 before I bludgeon it to death with a sledgehammer?
