    Unable to logon with DisplayPort connected

    When I connect my 4K Philips display on boot to flashed HD7950 card it simply refuses to boot. If I disconnect the 4K display and connect it right after booting then everything works fine. What's the reason for this? All works fine on HDMI and DVI.
