I have been fighting with my system all week. I finally have the system dual booting like I want, will almost. I can boot into my old home system with the mirrored drives as boot drive and have all my old programs or re-boot and use the SSD that has the minimum installation of Windows. It has the one main program I wanted to make work and an antivirus program and Firefox so I can use the internet. It is screaming fast and pegs out the Windows Experience rating at 7.8 with the top rating possible of a 7.9.

The only goofy (long string of cussing) thing is I can't get it to boot with just one monitor. It makes no sense.

I had to borrow a little 24 inch monitor from work and hook in the digital video connection to get a boot screen. The system boots with the little screen and after it boots it goes off and my main 29 inch 4K monitor takes over and the little monitor goes off. I can use both monitors if I want to but my home desk does not really have room for the second monitor. I am stumped.

The twin GTX 980 cards are fast for sure.
make sure you have the single monitor plugged into the 1st video card, nearly certainly the video card closest to the power supply. boot the machine up and make sure that the video drivers are listing the 29" as the "1" monitor. if it isn't the "1" monitor, using the "identify" function in the drivers, give me a call by phone.
