Getting a boot loop with 2nd monitor...

[SOLVED] Getting a boot loop with 2nd monitor...

I had issues getting a 2nd monitor to work via VGA on my Q77M-D2H. I purchased a displayport to VGA adapter, plugged it in (hot) and the 2nd monitor came up and seemed to be working fine. However, once I restarted, I could not get to the boot options screen. The machine would get stuck in a boot loop right before then. As soon as I unplug the displayport, my system boots normally. Any ideas?

Solved:

The 2nd monitor is smaller than my main monitor, so I changed the GRAPHICS MODE value in org.chameleon.Boot.plist to match the smaller resolution and I can now boot with both monitors plugged in.
