I know there are lots of posts on here about the 3 long beeps followed by 3 short ones on power up. Everyone's solution seems to be reseat the graphics card then the thread dies/gets closed. I wanted to share my workaround but hopefully see if there was a way anyone knows how to bypass this so I can reboot without the workaround?
For me, I use dual Display Port cables for my aftermarket card. The solution seems to be unplug the DP cables, boot the computer, then plug them back in. This is obviously a huge pain. Is there a setting in the bios I can leverage or something that will bypass whatever check that fails when I turn on my tower?

I looked in the Support Software; I don't see any updates for the bios... I agree though, not a fan of updating that. I thought there would at least be a setting in my BIOS to say "allow headless" or something....
