I just got my G61SD a few days ago, and I've noticed that whenever I have hdr in Windows enabled the monitor will commonly go to a black screen as if it was switching inputs. This has been happening between every 20 seconds to about an hour between each time it goes black. Is there any fix? I've tried both HDMI and DP cables
