Hello all, First Post!
I recently purchased a 17" MacBook pro. I love it except for the fact that when I turn it on with a secondary monitor attached neither monitor will turn on. Just black. It will boot up it will get to the apple boot screen, flash blue, then nothing. It will work perfectly fine if I turn the macbook on then connect the display. Just wondering if this is a defect? or if anyone knows of any possible solutions? Thanks in advance! Also, this display is connected over thunderbolt.
