PC refusing to start

Completely re-installed GPU drivers yesterday, and am now installing a few windows updates. I am gonna put a video onto YouTube showing exactly what is happening.

sometimes after changing the GPU drivers there will be a different version of "windows display driver" that you also need to install to make windows work properly with the new GPU drivers

So yesterday I got 2 display port cables

And those are being used alongside an hdmi cable that is going to my receiver. 

Now whenever I turn my computer on with all three monitor on the computer turns on, shows the mobo image, posts, and then goes blank and gets stuck until I manually turn it off. The only way it will properly start is if I turn off all but my main monitor and then it'll actually let me log on. I never had this issue prior to switching from two dvi to two displayport. Does anyone know what could be happening?
